Got two boxes yesterday... 1st box had 3 NIFCs, and nothing else of note... other than my third Chinese LEAD counterfeit - a 1971-D.  2nd box, noticed right away a proof ender in the 2nd row from the bottom...  I pull it out, flip it over and realize there is a silver ender on the other side!  As I open the one end, I come to realize my proof ender was my first ever SILVER proof ender - a 2001-S!   So yes, I got a double silver ender! Imagine that?! Sadly, these were the only silver coins in the box... although 7 NIFCs kept it interesting...

John77 Double enders are for sure exciting to find!, My last four boxes for this week, pushing 16 box streak of skunks, and box 16 saves me from going 16 skunks in a row with 1-69.  Glad to get that 69, I just need a good silver fix and it didn't happen this week. Lets see what next week brings, Hope you all have the best of luck and are blessed with lots of silver!
"LOVE THE HUNT!"

Thanks, jbuck, arby96, BigSilver, and cabowabo! And yes, a lotto ticket isn't a bad idea. LOL.
This has been far and away, my best ever month CRH half dollars... in the past 17 days, I have found in 4,155 coins searched via trays (15), rolls (140), and boxes (4000): 14 90% halves (2 in boxes, 12 in an old style CWR) 22 40% halves (1 in a box, 1 in a teller tray, and 20 in an old style CWR) 18 NIFCs (all in boxes)
And Arby96, glad your skunk streak ended. Hopefully you'll start hitting some better boxes in the coming weeks... just gotta keep them coming!

Silver this week was much better. Box 1 had 18 40% and a 90%. Plus 12 S mint marks, 1974S, 1976S, 1979S, 1985S, 1987S, 1995S, 2000S, 2003S, 2004S, 2007S X 2,2013S, PLUS 2018D X 2, 2015D, 1987D. The 90% was a 1944P that appears to be chrome plated.   Box 2 had a single 1968D. Living the dream, Webekin

Into searching box 2 today, I find this.. It's oriented heads up and tails up. I weighed it, it weighs 171 grains/ 11.1 grams on my scale. I thought maybe a Magicians coin but I searched the web, the only magicians coins I could find were either double heads or double tails. Dunno about this one
