I finished the last two boxes from last week. No silver. Crazy, in my last 16 boxes I have found only one silver half. Hopefully some of Obla's luck will soon rub off on me.
Merry Christmas everyone.

Nobis...lately my luck seems to have been about as good as yours. I have cut back the amount of boxes I get...pretty much limiting myself to about 3 boxes per week, 1 from 3 different banks.

I picked up 6 boxes tday, was supposed to get 14... Of 4 opened and searched 1 stinkin' NIFC. It was interesting that the woman that got them for me insisted they would NOT allow them to be returned! I said "don't worry, you wont see another and can I have some more please? Supposed to get 10 more boxes for me tuesday... We shall see.

Dang, I need a run of good luck like some have been having...

Be safe
Patty

2 boxes this week. Box 1 had 2 90%s, 4 40%s, 3 NIFC and a 100 Franc coin (I think). Box 2 had 2 NIFCs (4 if you count 2001P which I do not). Any week I pull silver is a good week and makes me not regret switching from dimes to halves.

Great finds! One and a half boxes of halves. Found one full roll of uncirculated 2003-P (NIFC). Also found 3 US-mint wrapped rolls! They were 2007D, 2008P, and 2008D. Plus, the end coins are beautifully toned. That makes a total of 80 NIFC's! Also found a couple 1996P with die cracks from tip of bust going between the '19' to the edge of the coin. No silver but some pretty good finds nonetheless.

I finished my first box of halves. I didn't get any silver but I found two NIFC. There were a lot of coins dotted up with marker and others with the same scratch marks on the obverse. I'll have to find a way to avoid other people's dumps.

In a good mood today! Found my first walker, a 1936. A 64, 2 67's and 2 66's oh and a very nice 2001 S.

Is the coloring toning on the Kennedy?

Hey SilverFossil...I see you're in Houston, I am in Dallas. What bank did you get bags from? I have been looking for one! Maybe they have a branch up here?!

Picked up 2 boxes from BofA today. 1-90% Kennedy, 2-40%, 2-NIFC, and I am pretty sure 1 roll had 21 coins. ;-)

Dropped off a deposit at the drive up window at my bank and spied a few halfs. I said i'd like to buy your halfs and she said sure. Got 1 '65 out of 4 coins....
