I never thought there would be so much silver available. All have been customer rolls. Been a eye opening experience, I learned that Bank of America has no problem taking my money in bailouts but when I want to buy some halves off them using legal fiat currency that is only okay if I am a customer. It is refreshing to see that customer service is not completly dead yet. Huntington Bank and National City/PNC have had the nicest tellers. Hope to get my first couple boxes in the next week. I will make sure to post results. Really enjoyed reading previous posts on here. XoG and tls867 have had the biggest hauls I have seen. If any of you get discouraged go back and read about those scores. I love the fact that this is a hobby where I can help secure my familys financial future and have the thrill of a treasure hunt. Keep up the good work folks!

My '57 Ben has a Mirror finish but it is not an S mint. Is this just a lightly circulated half or is it a proof? Above I attached a pic next a lightly circulated '68.

Jason11006, shoot me an email (in my profile). I would love to compare notes and milk all the silver out of this town systematicly. It would be great to find someone who does not think I am completly NUTS!

Just to bring all you back to earth :) - $2k in bagged halves, nothing. I did find a cool magician coin with a Mexican coin on the inside. Only way I found it was the drop test, it sounded hollow...

Got me one of those, myself, a few years ago. Mine is "brassy" inside. Noticed it because of the seam separation (at first, thought it was a slightly mis-aligned strike). I like it much better as what it is!

Got invited out to lunch today so naturally I combined that with a mini road trip and hit the two banks on that side of the street going and the other two banks on the other side of the street coming back. Out of the about $50 in loose teller halves I got, the silver gods saw it fit to bestow upon me one '64, one '67, two '68-D, and threw in an '03-P. Plus, I was treated to lunch...

Americanmafia - I saw Eisenhower's going for $1.35 at a coinshow this past weekend. I don't think much of a dent was made on the pile by the end of the day.

Ike's - saw several of them sell at a country auction last spring for $2-3 ea. - crazy. Also, a guy here locally had an ad in Craigslist - $5 ea. Eisenhower silver dollars, which I would have bought, until I found they were just the common clad.
