Thanks, guys! I've actually found more Franklins in the wild this year than any other year - I think I'm at 17 now... and we're not even to the end of May yet! Second recent bank box find of one for me.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

I title this, "Another bag, a bummer, then something weird happens" I was on another business trip, and as I always do, find a bank to sell me a bag of halves. I find one, nearly full, in a rural area, and think  . But then I tear it apart and only find 1 - 67  . Evidently this area is fully hunted and I stumbled on someone's dumps. This is on the heels of $1K in additional CWR's I came across that just had 2 - 40's and 6 NIFC's. Then I go home, and go to two local banks that have produced in the past but not recently. At one, the teller says,"We have a bag of those. $17 please." I gladly paid when I saw what was inside: 18 - 40's and 2 - 90's (1964).  The second bank had $70 in CWR's, which had 28 - 40's and 6 - 90's (1964). Between the two, it almost made up for what would have normally been in a bag.  Another trip is coming up where there's at least $1K out there. Stay tuned.

Two boxes (Brinks from Chase) produced 5 -90% and 4 -40% with one 1964 ender with a reverse showing. A first for me to get more 90 than 40. Here they are:  As a side note, I did not have the breakdown of how many came from each box because I dumped the whole lot of 100 rolls before searching.

Nice finds all! Forgot to post last weeks wrap up on four boxes. Was nearly skunked on four boxes, but this guy saw to it that I wasn't.  Picked up two boxes today, hopefully I'll find something ! Happy hunting!
