Quote: Back in the summer we had a standing order of two boxes a week from the head teller at our bank and after about six or seven weeks of that the big brains over there put a stop to it. Do you know why? They claimed it looked like money laundering! Sounds like the Mental Giants at SunTrust!

Rat, but if you think about it, that's actually good for us. It means they're still soooooooo clueless!

Slickeast, awsome score. I assume its a clear plastic bag if its a coin lock bag. I tell you, I would take rejected bags like that any day of the week. I have gotten clear plastic bags in the past, they were skunks and I was able to trace it back to another silver searcher 100 miles from me. Funny thing was he dumps to another carrier than the one I picked up with.

box last week was skunk and I picked another one up this week and was discouraged after 10 rolls. But then I pulled a coin which appeared to have the silver shine, to my amazement a 70-D!  I thought these were really rare? have not gone through the other 40 rolls

 Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Congrats!!  Road tripped to a small town and hit 3 banks. $500 (a 67 is on the end of one roll)in bank rolled all musky smelling like they have been rolled for some time  still need to look thru, $300 from a fed box from another bank and took out 3 40%, and $200 loose from a bank with a goose egg on those. Chomping at the bit to dig in those old rolls that have been around for awhile...

Starman - congrats on the 70-D. I relieved a teller of one of those a few months ago! They are very rare since they were not made for circulation. Even circulated they are worth well above their silver value.

Starman: Congrats,  on the 1970D! -Extremely hard coin to find in circulation , like Gothic Florin said, only made in Mint Sets. *I ended up buying a 1970 Mint Set (also had a real nice 70 S/S RPM- 001 ) but I wanted that 70D JFK also!

I found a 1970 half a couple of months ago. Definately put it in a 2x2 so I wouldnt send it off to get melted.

Well I made it thru the smelling old rolls I picked up from a bank yesterday and found the following: 1 - 68 4 - 67 1 - 69 1 - 59 Benny in mint state. Full bell lines, unbelievable coin...  1 - 45 Walker in decent condition. My first Walker!  1 - 57 (Dont know what the %^&*& it is?) Obverse has a picture of a gentleman with a receeding hair line and is has "Francisco Franco Caudillo De Espana Por La G.De Dios" Reverse it appears to be an eagle and says "50 ITAS or PTAS" I wish I could post a pick of it. Based off the description does anyone know what that is? Is it silver? I know its not the 40+ coins that some of you have pulled but it was a lot of fun with this $500 worth. Happy Hunting!

The coin is date 1957.
Forgot to mention, the Benny has full lines on the rim of the bell.
