Good Day everyone! My first 4 boxes for the week was not as good as the past two weeks, 2 skunks and 4-40%ers, 1-67, and 3-68's. I did pull a 2005P Satin finish. First one I have ever found that I noticed anyway. So it wasn't a great start to the week, We will see how the rest of the week goes. Wishing you all the best of luck.

Was in my bank on Friday on other business, but I asked the teller if she had any halves. A different teller had one dollars worth. As soon as she brought them over I could see that one was a Benny. 63D.

5 out of 6 boxes held silver. 21-90% and 102 40% for a total of 123 coins. It's an awesome feeling when one find that many coins. Especially when a couple weeks ago I had found a little over 200, almost seems unfair! Their was 2-walking liberty, 6 franklins, and 13-1964. I ran into something interesting with theses boxes . Most of the time by boxes have tape on them and these did not. Also when I went to open a roll I found that someone had wrote silver on the side and then I found another roll like that in another box. These two rolls held 10-12 pieces of silver each. The odd thing was that in all the other rolls in the boxes the most I found was like 3 in a roll but most were just 1-2 in about every other roll except for these two marked silver. Has anyone ever came across this? I know that my bank does not look through them. Maybe the people at brinks? I thought that it would make for a good discussion anyways.

Pics to come when I get time to figure it out. I tried using imgur and then when went to post it said that it couldn't be used it anymore.

Nice pickups Big7mag. I doubt Brinks would look through them. My guess is someone had a spare box and just boxed up the coins they had laying around, thus so many silvers in there and the writing on the rolls. Every time I order a box, the box comes taped and coins rolled by Brinks. I've searched over $6000 probably in halves and only found 3 pre-1971's. The only time I found other silver is from customer rolled coins that I picked up from the bank.

Big7 outstanding score, I love to hear people are still finding large numbers of silver still, Gives me hope I will come across some nice boxes like that, only a matter of time. looking forward to the pictures. Off to make a dump and pick up four more boxes. Okay, just finished the last 4 boxes for the week, 3 skunks, and I pulled 1-68 and 1-69. One always hopes for better luck, 2 will have to do. Until next week, I wish you all well and hope you all score much silver. Until next week.

I have been completely striking out on silver lately. I've plucked out a few NICF's. But, I've found absolutely no silver in the last 3 boxes. I'm even striking out at the bank counters. Things might be drying up down here (South Florida) until snow bird season starts again in late fall.
