JFK Half Dollar Roll Hunters: Silver, Proofs And Other Finds

Skiddib is talking about "hole fillers" and here I am still looking for my first Franklin... one of these days... LOL.

Received my 2nd ever ordered box yesterday, the teller dropped $100 worth on their way from the vault. I searched $400 remaining and got skunked. I am certain that the silver was in the part that fell out.
Still, I feel bad for the teller who had to clean up the mess.

Today started out not so good, the coin machine at one of my banks has been shorting me anywhere from $4.50 to $6.00 a dump, I don't mind too much when I score large amounts of silver, I don't like it but sometimes we have to deal with it. Today the machine took $13.50, so I had a talk with the bank manager, Its awesome to have a good relationship there, He told me the tech has been called and until the machine get fixed just make sure I dump when he is there and he will correct the error made by the machine. So after the dump there I went and picked up 4 more boxes, 3 skunks and I pulled 1-64 and 1-66. While I was there the Teller tells me a old lady came in and cashed some half dollars, I asked her if I could see what she had and she put 5 rolls on the counter I check 2 of them and there was a 68 in one of them, I told her I would take them all and then she tells me she had $630. dollars worth, of course I purchased all of them. Those rolls produced 15 pieces of silver, 3-65, 1-67, 7-67, 2-68, 2-69. That makes it a much ending to the day than it started. 25 pieces of silver for the week. Enjoy the pics.

The streak continued yesterday evening. Someone here had mentioned I should increase my orders while the getting was good.... I tried for 8 boxes, yesterday, but had to settle for 6. They all produced.

box 1: 1 x ben, 9 x 40%
box 2: 1 x 1943 walker, nicest Ive ever found
box 3: 1 x 40%
box 4: 6 walkers, 8 x 1964, 19 x 40%
box 5: 1 x 40%
box 6: 6 walkers, 1 ben, 3 x 1964, 19x40%

boxes 4 and 6 were close to equally loaded. Box 4 being a tad better.

There were enders too. Jeez I cant believe this run continues.



4 enders on this box 6. Box 4 had a walker ender also.



Look at this beauty!

Skibdib, what's the date on that heavily worn Walker?

Excellent!

Bought one more roll this week. Best was a very shiny 2004P, and it had 11 to add to the set. Might buy a box in a few weeks when I'll be out of town, as this thread has been fun to watch and given me an itch.

the streak is over for now. 4 skunk boxes. They were a different stamp #, so that was not a great sign off that bat. but I knew the streak couldnt last forever, too bad (there could be more out there from this vein, who knows). Gotta just try to search and see what shows up.

good luck all, may the shiny stuff find its way to all those who seek it.
