I thought was taking the week off plans changed went out Friday. Got a couple here and there picture #1. Towards the end of my hunt stopped at a bank teller was very nice handed me these 2 rolls and said they have silver in them. I say OK. Well they were as advertised 2 solid rolls 40%. The 67s look like a BU roll pictures 2&3. Next bank had 10 rolls waiting for me plucked 20 40% from that picture 4. I think I wound up with 68 40% and 1 foreign coin.

Nice Score Cabo, What area of the country are you searching in? Well If I didn't have that backup bank last week, I would have had a skunk week, my last four boxes for the week were skunks. Loomis Boxes have not produced lately. I won't be picking up from that bank again, for another week. That is my hit and miss bank. LOL The week was still a good one. Wishing you all the best, hope you all had an awesome weekend.

I stopped in a Chase bank today. Had a really disjointed conversation with the teller.
Me: Do you have any halves?
Teller: No
Me: Ok
Teller: maybe we have in the vault. You can back on Monday to get them. I will check.
Me: Thank you
Teller: Yes. We have $100.
Me: Can you get them for me now?
Teller: Yes. Please wait.
..........
Teller: I am sorry. We don't have halves. They are dollars.
Me: No problem. BTW do you have any Big dollars?
Teller: Yes. (Reaches into drawer and removes 12 HALF DOLLARS!)
Me: Those are halves. I'll take them. (Eyes some silver edges)
Got a beautiful toned 1961 Benny and a 1967 JFK

Hello Everyone, BigSilver, I wonder if their being paid $15.00 an hour working in a bank and not knowing the difference between half dollars and Ike dollars. LOL, Last week I cracked open 14 boxes, 4 contained silver for a total of 7 pieces, 1-64, 1-65, 2-67, 2-68 and 1-69, also pulled 1-11P NIFC. Missed my weekly goal by 3 pieces. Hope you all have a great week. I hit the big 60 Wednesday, a monster box would be awesome. Haven't seen one of those for years. Have a great week everyone.

So, it finally happened. I found my first silver half (1968-D). It ONLY took $3,072 worth of hunting halves to find it! Also, I think I found a 1982-P No FG, as well!

BCH congrats on your first silver score! The more boxes you search the better the odds. Be careful, when you hit that box with 20, 30 or more you may never give up. Been searching since Nov 2013, I told my banks I thought I would only try it for a year when I started. Have fun and don't give up and silver will find you.

Brought home 2 boxes late Wednesday afternoon. First box had some NIFC, including a 2014S. Also found some nice '70- '90s coins, for those at the coin club that might need them. Second box have 2 1964, 3 1966, 2 1968, that's 1.5 OZ. of silver.
