Stopped in at a Chase bank on my way home. Teller had some loose halves in his tray...1 being a 1964. Cha-ching! :)

How did you pull that off? I tried bank hopping and its been a major bust except for a couple lucky banks early on. Half the banks say they don't have any and no scores on the rest from trays or rolls. Fortunately they usually don't hassle me for no account. But I think I've missed the great silver train everybody's talking about here.

I went through my first box today, 1 1960 D Franklin, 1 1968 Kennedy. $60 in bicentennial. I don't know if it was worth the bother, but looking through the box I separated them.

Quote: 2001 is not a NIFC year. 2001 P is most certainly an nifc coin in my opinion it was talked about here and seems to be kind of unclear the 2001 D coin is most certainly not an NIFC but the 2001 can be seen as one http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...PIC_ID=56987pretty rude answer to say something so bold and not really completely corect

Chriscoinmaster...I suggest you keep reading:
When minted, the 2001-P half dollars were not intended to be released. Soon, however, the mint discovered that collectors had no intentions to pay above face value for a business strike coin with a very high mintage, so many millions were released into circulation. It's similar to how some of the classic commemoratives were dealt with when sales figures were lacking.

Oh and Mr. Rude Chriscoinmaster: You apparently don't go through that many halves. 2001s are pretty much a dime a dozen!

Frankly from my limited experience, bicentennials seem to be one of the most common dates aside from 1971. I got oodles and oodles of them...however I did run across an unusual one which might be plated in something. If I ever stop being lazy I might post it sometime.

Yes, I know but I was going through them anyway and just put them in a pile. I almost thought getting the box was a waste of time, then about half way through I opened a roll and saw the liberty bell on the end of the roll! I was shocked, Didn't get to see it when unwrapped and looking at the side of the coin! Then a few rolls later the 1968. That was it for me but at least something. You are right about the 1971. there were loads of them! Kind of like the 1964 nickels!

I searched 4 of my 8 boxes for the week. 0 silver and 0 proofs. Looks like it might be one of those weeks.

Todays rolls: 5 rolls, plus 6 loose coins.
The 6 rolls were marked Keith, and had X's on them. I figured they had been searched.
But here is what was in the rolls
2xrolls of all 1971 1xroll of 15 1974, 3 1972, and 2 1971 1x roll of the bicentennials I believe and 2 rolls of misc, one of which came from a different bank.
So I think I happened into someone dumping a collectors rolls, maybe? What do you guys think, if so I'll go by the other 100$ worth of rolls.

@Shavill: I think it's probably empty, but the fact that they might have "Keith's all 1964 rolls" would be far too tempting for me.
