Got my one and only Barber half, an 1894 smoothie, within the first couple weeks of roll searching. Have only found a few Walkers in 3 years, one being a nice '38D. Keep in mind when buying, even if you are buying $600 worth of dumps, that one or two rolls that just came in are included and may just be solid silver. I've scored those kind several times.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72

Ordered two boxes this time, due to come in on Wed.
You guys just burst my bubble with commments like "beginners luck" and "luck of the draw"; I thought it was all skill--knowing exactly what day to order on from which back, and which teller. Shucky-darn, now I have to worry about not finding anything in these next two boxes!

That's a very good point. A lot of these casinos I mean banks have to fill up these bags of halves to a specified amount ($500 to $1000, typically) before the armored car services will take them off their hands. Much of those halves could be from a dump while the rest could indeed consist of innocent customer redemptions mixed in. By the time those halves get rolled and boxed and we get them, literally anything could be in there.

At the racetrack we used to have a rather unflattering expression relative to system players like you, you're "money on a hoof." You keep at this, though, you'll learn, I have the utmost confidence in you. Until then, good luck on these second and third bets I mean boxes in your life, I hope they run in the money I mean silver for you!

Ramping up production for this summer. Opened up a couple more accounts around town. Threw out my feelers to get a sense of where and how many boxes I can order. Will a bank I just opened an account with get ticked if I start dumping there. I know I am their customer, but can accounts get shut down because of "too" much dumping.

Motos - it all depends on the bank, and the manager of the bank. Some people hate it and will close your account, others are tolerant and will let you dump. Roll the dice and see what happens.
