My weekly box yielded 3x 40%ers. I picked up two boxes this week and I'll report later on my second box.

*** Staff Edit: First part of post removed, unacceptable language and attitude! ***

bishftl, I wanted to talk to you about your results, what your procedure is, etc. I don't know anyone else out here doing what we are doing, so I thought it would be kind of cool to hear from others around here. If you don't want to talk and stay private, it's cool and I respect that. I hope you liked that little collection of proofs I put in those rolls, the teller mentioned it to me when I went in yesterday.

Ok so I was going to post my results from the other day, instead I have a story about me getting upset with my bank. It is my dump bank generally but I have gotten silver from one of the branches and when a different asked if I wanted a box I said sure. So I go to pick it up and it is not there. They call the main office and she said it was not there because "You are not going to get what you want anyway." "I guess not considering what I wanted was a box of half dollars" (what I thought about saying 10 min later in the car) began my lecture of costomer service. "Listen, you asked ME about ording a box of halfs." was the theme.
I have said it before and I will say it again: this is why they are my DUMP bank!

Lonz,

Are you sure you have a number of missing FG coins? The reason I am asking is that the FG is often worn down on high trafficked coins.

I would make sure you take a strong magnifying glass and make sure there is not even the slightest trace of an outline for the FG.

I have ran across a lot that were close candidates but only found one true non-FG (at least that I caught). It is in a folder in my collection.

kenscott,

When I say "sellable" I mean able to get more than face for it - I attribute alot of them to what you said, Grease Filled Dies, but have found a few "real ones."

The ones that barely have a trace usually go for $1.99 on ebay. Warn ones about 99¢

Boxes 363-370
8 straight boxes of this crap. almost 40 rolls. and this is just the first 4 boxes. I didn't bother with the last 4, there was no point in wasting another 4 hours of my day.

JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds

Not only have these coins been dumped in ridiculous amounts at my pickup bank, now my regular dump bank denied me for the first time today because of this as well.

since I have been through this with another bank before I went and set up new pickup/dump banks ahead of time knowing it would come to this. have fun searching the same coins over and over again...

my first two new bank box results will post after I'm done counting the silver finds.

JFK-Half-Dollar-Roll-Hunters:-Silver,-Proofs-And-Other-Finds

here's a thought. @ 26.83 it might be easier to just buy a s@#$load of silver and leave the searching to those of us who actually enjoy it.
