Got my first 2 boxes. Both skunks for silver. Did find lots of good NIFC and the last box had 6 proofs in it. The 2006 proof was in nice condition. 2 of the proofs had been marked. Why would anyone mark a proof? Would using acetone to clean the markings further damage the proofs? Happy hunting all.

Yes, acetone should remedy that problem for you.

Sorry please use 91% Alcohol, it is far less toxic and works as well. Today my first four boxes yielded 1-69. I was really hoping I would see a continuation of last weeks haul, sometimes one get that lucky, not this time. Wishing you all the best of luck, and blessings.

One is better than none, but I hope the next four boxes are much better.

Two boxes yesterday: 1 1966 in the 1st box and 4 40% and 1 1964 in the 2nd box. Oddly enough, the 4 40% in the second box were all silver proofs including a bicentennial.

I had a good CRH last week I checked 6 boxes.
Box 1 was a skunk
Boxes 2-6 held 5 90% silvers 1-1959D Ben and 4 1964 Kens. 19 40% silvers10 proofs... a 1986D Statue of Liberty commemorative . 2- 1974d DDO
43 NIFC' + 2 1987's I also found a first battle of Bull Run collector and a clad double Heads 1971 (probably a Magicians coin)

I was supposed to have some more coming this week but my bank forgot to order them so I guess I'll have to wait until next week now..

So I was unable to check my last four boxes from last week until this morning. Only 2 box skunk, boxes 3 and 4 yielded 4-90%ers, 1-1950 Bennie, 1-64 and 1-64D, 19-40%ers, 3-65, 2-66, 5-67 5-68, 4-69, I also pulled 2-Clad Proofs, and 4-NIFC which one is my first 2018D. I can say is was a great way to end and start a week!
