Good for you smoke , I wish you the best luck in your searchs ! That 2007D would have completed my set of jfk's nifc if not by the blue marker on it ! I refuse my self to clean a coin to keep it unless its a rare key date with damage and really need to be cleaned otherwise noway ,1st rule of coin collection DONT EVER CLEAN YOUR COINS (i did many times as last resource only) I did also in couple proofs and can tell you : the coin s not the same as it was . Proof coins and nifc have a very low mintage with prospect to be a key date one day but it is not silver so who cares lets mark it lol ( you probably loved my pics hah ?!.) Anyway lets forget and keep doing what we do best and give us pleasure (searching ,collecting ,selling, melting , marking) as far as I can see we have different opinions and it is it ! Again good luck , happy hunting !

"I would rather people mark them, then I KNOW I am wading through someones leftovers." - smokeriderdon
Don, you are wading through someone's leftovers if you are sorting boxes of halves. Marked or not marked.

I know some of you here get coins in bags. I live in the Philadelphia area. Does anyone know if there are any banks around me that offer bags? I am stuck with boxes and want to try to change my luck. I have been getting skunked for like ever.

It's getting very hard here to find even clad halves, much less silver. One bank sold me over $250 in halves the other day, but I quickly realized they'd all been searched. I did get one good lead today, however. A really nice teller told me she didn't have any, but she also works at another branch that does. She gave me her business card, and told me to come to the other branch when she goes back.
