I went through a small batch (20 rolls) of bank-rolled Kennedy halves over the weekend. While the overall haul was a bit disappointing (no NIFC; nothing dated later than 1998), there were three 40% silver pieces -- less than 1% of the 400-coin total. Still, at least it wasn't a total shutout -- and the 1968-D was a fairly nice-looking half.

Got these on Friday from another bank that has become very reliable for silver. I am 3 for 3 at this bank.

My normal 2 boxes every other week. Box 1 had a 1969, 2002, and a 2012, the NIFC were not in the best condition.
Box 2 was better. Had an ender, 1959D, and 2 '66, 2 '67, 2'68, 2'69, and a lone 2003.

Drove the wife to her eye appointment, stopped at 2 banks and collected a total of $6.00 in halves to use to replace the silver ones I find. I prefer to return full boxes of halves. Stopped at a new this spring, branch bank, ask if they had any halves, loose or rolls? She had several rolls, told her I would take them, she ask how many? I said all you have. Thinking several, was 2-3. She said she had $460.00 worth, 46 rolls.JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds
JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds Told her I would take $400.00 worth. While she was collecting them I found another $20.00, so took 2 more rolls. After she passed them to me in new bank zipper bags she provided, I ask, "do you get rolls often?" She said, "No these were from an estate cleanup!!!!!!" We drove away and stopped, first roll my wife opened had a 1969, so found another $40.00 on the sun visor and returned and purchased the other 4 rolls.
Short story, found 2 '66, 4 '67, and 1 1969.

Hello everyone, I finely hit goal of searching Over $2 Million Dollars in half dollars, an awesome . This will be my last week searching halves for a while. I am going to start searching quarters and pulling West Point quarters to list for sale on my store. My final post will be most likely Friday. I wanted to thank you all for all the kind words and motivation everyone supplied. I searched 12 boxes last week all skunks, my first skunk week for 2021. I hope I can get a few pieces of silver this week and end on a good note. Thanks again everyone!!!

Arby take care of yourself. Remember you can come back anytime. Got all this from one bank. The 2 NIFC rolls were in Brinks wrappers solid date 1993 and 1998 along with the 2001 Mint Wrapped roll. The other roll hd 2 40%.
