Picked up my 2 boxes monday, and had a 2 box skunk. Found some very nice 1971, so close to BU, kept most of a roll along with some other very nice examples of clad halfs. Webekin

I have to post some pictures of the last couple of boxes, last two yesterday were skunks. Like 4 NIFC, but not in great condition. Hopefully Friday's three boxes will be better

2 boxes from yesterday. Box 1 had 3 NIFC. Box 2 had 1 40% ender. That was it  I still don't understand how if I average 1 silver per box that it ends up as an ender. I mean that is like 1 in 10,000 or 1 in 100,000 odds I'm not sure the formula to use  1 silver X 1000 coins per box x 100 ends showing?

I know the feeling... You see an ender and think there's probably more

1/2 a box so far... 2 NIFCs, but no silver... However, I found this nice little hole filler...

Today's 4 boxes did not yield as much silver as last weeks. But I did find 3 40% (65.,68x2) and a WALKING LIBERTY!! It is is my third order of 4 boxes and I am excited! I could not believ it when I pulled it out. But I new it was something when I saw how worn it was. You can not see the date from how worn it is, but it is perfect to me! I also found 3 proofs a 2000x2, 2001. And 7 nifc. I debated whether or not to keep them but after seeing the low mintage I thought they may be worth something in 20-30 years. Good luck everyone! Hope your boxes are filled with silver!

Nice finds, Big7Mag... On the Walker, I'm thinking if you tilt it at the right angle, you may be able to get a date on it. Yes, definitely doesn't hurt to keep the proofs or the NIFCs.

Congrats on the Walker Big 7 mag, it may be worn out, but it's still silver. Walking Liberty's aren't very common, but there's still a few out there. I don't know how many Walking Liberty's I've found in my approximately 1yr. 8 mo. of searching. I'd guess less than 50 and probably between 50-100 Franklin's. So far only one Barber and no Seated Liberty's. I'm trying to put together a set of Walking Liberty's and Franklin's from circulation, so I always get excited when I see either of them come out of a roll. I'm always hoping it will be a date/mint mark I don't have yet. Seems that 90+% of the time it's one I already have so it just goes in with the rest of the silver stash. Who knows I may find someone who wants to do some horse trading one of these days and be able get some of the dates/mint marks I need, but it would be so much more fun to find them myself.

I'm still looking for my first pre-64 half... have never found one my entire life... Hopefully, one of these days I will finally run into one in my CRH.

Four boxes yesterday, another three skunks 1-68 plus a plastic 50 cent piece which was an ender I missed until I opened it. Not liking July too much this year. Just picked up 4 more boxes will get to them later today. I need a silver fix bad!
"LOVE THE HUNT!"
