Not doing the second box today but checked the ends of the rolls before going to bed. MY FIRST FRANKLIN ENDER!! also the other one with the Kennedy Reverse "appears" to be an ender but I have been fooled before.

Haven't opened it yet but this morning there were two rolls that may have had silver as the Ken reverses look right, they weren't but on the one that I really thought it was, had 3 1967's Tonight after work I will open the rest of the rolls, can't wait

Went to the bank to dump halves, filled the bag, when they were changing it I watched, I could see AT LEAST 10 SILVER HALVES!!!
I pleaded with them to sell me the bag and they said no, it has to go to the fed (right!) I do know that they use Loomis so in they should be coming back in boxes soon.
I wonder what the turnaround is on halves from the car companies? My pickup banks all seem to use Garda, may have to order a couple boxes from this bank in a few weeks and I may get a Loomis dump.
I will call the main branch and beg to buy the coins but it seems to be most banks in the metro Boston area won't sell bags

I did ask about exchanging some halves for halves and she very forcefully said no. When I got home I called the VP at the main branch and asked about it and it was still no. I asked what car company they use and they won't tell, it is a state secret. I didn't want to tell her that one of the branch managers told me they use Loomis and I asked for a roll of dimes and it said Loomis that is a clue
I am not sure what day Loomis shows up some banks are Tuesday some are Thursday, if it is tomorrow that bag could show back up in boxes as early as next week so I think I will go to that branch tomorrow and order a couple boxes of halves and for the next month of so increase my weekly boxes from 2 to 4, keep getting the boxes from my current bank that have been good and try two boxes a week at today's bank to see if I can score that silver

After I dumped some dimes today I stopped at a few banks looking for Kennedy half dollars and Eisenhower dollars. I didn't find any Ikes but I found some halves. 1 bank had 3 coins one of them was a 1967 40%. I got $50 from a second bank and $35 from a third. Out of that $85 I found a 2004 NIFC and a 1983p with no fg. I also found a 1957d wheat in a "take a penny leave a penny" tray at a convenience store. Yesterday I found a bent clad dime and bent zinc cent. I also found another bank branch to order halves. They ordered me some and I should get them next Tuesday if they don't get delivered too late, if so, Wednesday

Last week I found 34 40% and 18 90% in one box. Got two more boxes yesterday from the same bank. First box had 1 40% so not a skunk. The SECOND BOX WAS A MONSTER 43 40% and 18 90% including 8 Franklins and 3 Walkers OMG what a box what a streak of 2 weeks!! There was one Franklin ender and 1 40% ender that I didn't notice until I opened the roll. I am still blown away  last weeks box
