About half way through a box I found this. It seems someone was more concerned about marking the obverse than they were checking the reverse for lack of marking

Acetone will fix that problem.

I got very lucky yesterday. Went into bank asked for halves first teller says she has none the other teller says I just got these in 5 minutes ago. She says I have $16.50 I take them. As she gets the $6.50 loose I see all silver I am really liking my chances with the CW roll. Open it solid 40%. Total %16.50 40% nice clean coin close to BU. Make my way to another bank similar situation first teller nothing second teller says I have 12 halves they are nice and new. You know where this is going all 12 Proofs. I had a very lucky day.

Outstanding Score Cabowabo! Today I picked up 4 more boxes, once again 3 of them skunks, Box 4 was nice to me a little, I pulled 2 pieces of silver 1-40%er and 1-90%er also 4-Clad Proofs, and 1-NIFC Satin finish 2009D. Here are the dates, 1-66 and 1-11S Silver Proof, Clad Proofs 2-99S, 1-01S, 1-09S. Its always nice to find a Silver Proof. That is my second 2011S Silver Proof I have found.

Cabowabo, that is one of the reasons why I like this hobby, One can say, "Life is like a box of half dollars, One never knows how much silver they will get".

Great finds, arby and cabowabo!

As for me, picked up a box today... and the top row of 25 rolls was a total skunk. Not even a NIFC. Lots of marked coins with the number "1504" on the reverse. However, third roll of the second 25 coins produced that happy clangy sound - a 1968-D! Didn't find anymore silver, but there were 7 NIFCs amongst the rest of those rolls.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!
