Picked these up on Friday. Whenever this bank has halves they always produce some silver.

A month or 2 ago I came across a similar score... I got 4 rolls from a local bank where I live that yielded 78 Franklins and 2 Walkers.
Fantastic!

That's awesome arby96. Is the Nation of Immigrants' coin legal tender? I have never seen one before. Then again, I am still new to the coin collecting world there is a lot I have not seen.

And the story goes on.

I was on my way to a doctor's appointment at the VA today. I thought what the hell; I stopped by my credit union, or what I now call my coin vault, to just check. When I last talked to the teller, she said that I had cleaned them out so I was not expecting much. I asked a different teller today for any customer rolled half dollar rolls without my initials. At first she looked at me with a look of confusion. The teller next to her said he is the guy that comes in to get half dollar rolls and she would need to go to the vault to get them. After we, me and the teller, told her what I was doing she shrugged and head back to the vault.

She popped her head out of the door to the vault and asked are you CP. I said yes and thought no joy today. A few minutes later she came back with 13 rolls. I was thinking things are looking up. She laid the rolls on the counter and a chorus of angles were singing in my head. 4 rolls had W L written on the sides, 4 rolls had K, and 1 roll had Mix, 1 roll had no writing but in the same wrapper as the others with writing, and the last 3 were rolls I turned in.

So here is what I found

JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds

I hand to look up this coin: I believe it is a Barber.

JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds

I finally got some Kennedy 4o% and 90%

JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds

JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds

So for today I scored

Kennedy 90% - 17
Kennedy 40% - 14 (1-69, 4-68, 6-67, 1-66, 2-65)
Franklin - 5
Walking Liberty - 85
Barber - 1

The rest of the coins were Kennedy's 71 and newer. I will go through them to make sure they were not in the rolls for some reason.

My total with this coin vault (credit union branch) is

Kennedy 90% - 17
Kennedy 40% - 14 (1-69, 4-68, 6-67, 1-66, 2-65)
Franklin - 185
Walking Liberty - 185
Barber - 1

I am positive it was someone's coin dump. I asked the teller if they knew who deposited these. No one knew, and they could not tell me if they did.

Oh well, I hope the story goes on.
