Searched one box last night and got no silver. Did replace a couple in my book with better ones.

$52 of Ikes
$133.50 in half dollars.

Will post after search. So far see several rolls of bicentennial halves in BU condition.

Opened up a box of halves and guess what, 50 rolls of UNC
1993D never been in circulation. Must have been a bag from the fed they rolled up.
What should I do with them?
Another box had 9 Kennedy proofs and 4 commemorative proofs
3 1986S liberty centennial halves
a 1989S bicentennial of congress
a 1987D
and 1 silver a 1964 Kennedy

keep 10 rolls and sell them for $25-35 a roll. Selling singles would take too long but they do sell up to 5/each on ebay.

since 1990 they're probably one of the higher value coins in high grade.

Nice finds, trapper. Reminds me of when I was very new to CRH a couple years ago, I asked for halves at a bank and got 10 OBW rolls of 1991D. I feel pretty silly for dumping those now.

Anyways, since I was in town today I decided to run a grand circuit of banks and buy all their loose halves. Wound up with roughly $80 all together, and among them were 11 40%ers and a few UNC 80s dates I needed.

I got lucky enough too find a box of half's at a US Bank the other day! I've been going through them and have filled a few holes in my books and have been hoping for silver. I am about half way through and still no silver, But I just found something exciting! A 2006-P in pretty good condition. I wonder how he ended up in circulation!

Great coin, with the missing date.

Bish, you interested in any BU bicentennial rolls? I don't have 500 posts, so we'd have to get permission or something.
