Asked the teller at my bank for any half dollars on a whim today, and she gave me a '67 and a '78, as well as two '72-Ds. More silver in that $2 than my past 4 boxes.

Did another box today. Scored a Franklin and 3 40% Kennedys. I think my venturing out might be paying off. I also got 4 NIFCs in BU condition from this box. I am so happy my luck has been good this past couple weeks.

I picked up 8 original US Mint rolls of halves: (2) 2001-P, (2) 2001-D, 2002-P&D, and 2003-P&D, from a local bank at face value. I'd rather get silver (of course) but maybe these are worth some premium. Anyone have an idea what they might sell for?

Here are photos of one 2001 P & D roll pair:

Nice snags on those rolls! The '01s might only be worth a little over face, but the 4 rolls of '02 and '03 go for about $30 each on the mint website. So, keep them, or sell them if you need the money. Rolls like that should go for a nice premium on ebay.

I just finished a box and nothing. Weird thing was although machine wrapped 8 rolls were over or short 1 or 2 halves! I never had that happen and a machine wrapped sealed box.

Nice haul Chuckster!

I have been getting 6 boxes for the past couple of weeks and having real bad luck. Only finding 1-2 silver coins in all 6 boxes.
Made my order only 2 boxes for this week and now there's finally silver.
36 - 40%
5 Proofs
1 1866 Italia 10 centisimi
1 Andrew Johnson Presidential coin sandwiched in
34 NIFC (2008 or 2009)
I love opening rolls and finding 2-3 silver per roll. Makes up for the past couple of weeks for sure!

You guys are very luck !
Im not searching like crazy anymore duo no time to do it and after numerous boxes of halves with no luck I only ask now per 20 to 30 rolls at the time trying to find the silver ! Btw my girl just called me to say she just found my 1st walker on the Mcdonalds register yahoooo.... 1943 is what she told me . My girl is kicking my bum bum in halves lol
I have a box waiting for me at the bank since tuesday but didnt have the time yet to pick it up so I hope found some rolls left when I finaly pass by there as my teller told me there is one lady who is also asking for halves there .
I lost my shame and ask my teller if I could search the halves and reroll then just trade it for another box she answer sure , I told you rick a long time ago to do that ! I told her never did it before because I was afraid they would stop to supply me coins and she said: dont worry about it rick , we love you lol ! So I ll do one box every week without the trouble of dump ! Is like a dream I know only one box dont make much results but who knows one day I stumble on one of these monster boxes like you guys been finding lately ...

6 boxes: 2 - 90%, 3 - 40%, waiting to hit a box like some of these guys. I have done about 25 boxes thus far and never had a box over 20.
