My first 1964 was in one of my first two boxes and I was hooked. Also found a number of nice proofs in the first two boxes.

I am hoping boxes 8 and 9, coming Thursday, will bring back some of the magic.

This box had no silver, but some interesting stuff. Little over a roll of 2011 P and D's...one 2010


Great find, shootblue, on the 2011's. I've only found 1 2011 in 23,000 halves
Rest in Peace

But the 1970 was only issued in Mint Sets; not for circulation.

And of course the current silver proofs. Sometimes I think they are forgotten about. I sure hope people don't break apart proof sets but the halves quarters and dimes are out there as well as 1970 and some 76s

Boxes 17 and 18 are skunks, also got 160$ in cwr, which were dumps. 4 box in a row skunk streak since the monster box. I'm done with the cwr stuff, keep getting dumps, still eyeing teller trays when possible. Next box thursday. Good luck to all .

Haven't had much luck lately; halves are getting hard to find. I had to go to the "nice" side of town today, and so I went by some banks. Nothing at first, but I eventually found two 40% at a bank. Another bank only had two halves, but both 40%. A bank next door also had a 40%.

Five 40%! That paid for my gas and then some. I know where I'm hunting from now on.
