Quote: Finished up my first 2 boxes of halves yesterday, found 3-40%, and a 2001S and a golden colored 1980, and some kind of commerative half (bicentennial of the Congress) mint mark S not real sure what it is but looks real cool. I will have to do some research on this. I ordered 2 more boxes next week First two boxes and already found a commemorative. I've been roll searching halves about 1yr. 9 mo., have looked at approximately 1/2 million coins and think I've found 5 commemoratives. You on the other hand order 2 boxes and already have a commemorative. Congratulations!!

My last 4 boxes of the week yielded 1,90% a 1963d Benny and it was an ender I expected to find more in the box but it was not to be.

Hi everyone, Just unloaded 400 40%ers Saturday, just too many in my stash. The coin Dealer was paying $2.50 a piece.
That it the highest for 40%ers I have seen in 2 years.
How much are you guys getting for 40%ers?

No bad. I have never sold silver, but I did trade a chunk in at a shop once. I was able to finish up my Franklin collection that way.

I finally got some good boxes on Friday. These had the same date code as the 8 skunk boxes from the last 2 Fridays in a row. Box 1 had 4 oddball enders. Ended up with 2 proofs, 2 rolls fo NIFC, a stickered, a 1964, and a 40%er. Box 2 had an NIFC ender, a 40% ender, and I missed the reverse 1964 ender in the picture. Ended up with 6 40%ers, a 1964, a stickered, and a 1940 Canadian half dollar. This is my first Canadian half. I had found a Twoonie in a roll of halves before though. Box 3 had 2 1964'a and a copper Arizona Mining Association token. Box 4 had 9 40%ers.
