Well my luck turned around today. After about a month finding a few things here and there I finally got some good stuff today.

$110 CWR's
16 Franklins
4 1964 Kennedys
1 Walker (1942)
1 40% Kennedy (1967)

Just when I thought silver had dried up...

I finally broke my silver skunk streak. I went through 8 boxes last week with no silver. I ordered 8 more boxes this week, and on box number 11, I found a 1958 Franklin. So, I searched 10 1/2 boxes between last week and this week before finding a single silver coin. Glad that is over - those boxes begin to kill your desire to search.

I finished searching 6 boxes this weekend. I found 2 silver coins. A 58' Franklin and a weird middle eastern looking coin. It is definitely silver (look and drop test confirmed). It is also a shade smaller in diameter than a half dollar and the same tickness. On one side it has a castle and arabic writing. On the other side, there is an ornate design that covers the entire side. I researched and could not find the coin on the internet. In addition, I tried to post a picture but it is 1039 KB and I can only post 90 KB pictures. Not sure how to make it a smaller file.

Two more boxes await next week, and then I am taking off searching through Christmas. Though, I may do some bank drop ins for halves. Merry Christmas everyone.
