So the bank that had a $500 bag of Loomis coin, which produced well, has agreed to order another bag form me. I'm really excited. This is the first bank, that I don't have an account with, that has agreed to order halves for me. I may have to open an account if their boxes continue to produce.

1st half dollar box ever:
$500 searched yesterday
90%: 2 = 64 x 2
40%: 3 = 66, 67, 68D
NIFC: 3 = 03D, 06D x 2
73S clad proof
That seems to be above average, so I'm happy.
Picked up two boxes yesterday, so I have one more to search tonight.

Anything over 226 on the right.... anything under on the left.  so far no "whoppers" - the heaviest being 226.5 - best by weight/guaranteed silver has been anything over 227. I realize these numbers are a bit strange, but if you consider wear on the coins plus my scale is a cheapy - it's consistent enough. I know I know... why weigh your coins? Because I'm OCD like that... save all the "heavy" ones to the end. |

 Can someone post a link to the list of half dollar errors to check (if there is one) Tried searching, but can't find and need it relatively quick. Obviously silver/ S Mints/ NIFC's/ 1974D DDO/ etc... but I can't remember the rest to check for "No FG" and other obscure DDR/DDO's Sorry for the laziness, but I want to have my girlfriend sort while I cut the grass and want to give her a list. Thanks in Advance!!  |

Hey Kenscott - I have a spreadsheet I've built too. It's loaded with the amount of silver content per coin, and so it's easy to get a melt value now. I guess that's the most logical way to value inventory. It doesn't account for any numismatic value of coins of course. Along with the dog-coins, everyone surely has some pretty nice looking coins they've put in their stash. But, that's gotta be very elusive to figure.

Found this baby after I had already rim searched for the silver. Was going through each coin for NIFC and Proofs and such, and there she was!  I cleaned it with vinegar overnight (forgot to take it out) and it looks nice now. |
