Nice walker, Jdot!
The toning on that Ike is amazing, fadetoblack!
Angel, yes toning usually makes coins worth more just because so many people are willing to pay more for them just because they're so dang beautiful!

Box #2 - Blank
Dropping them off at the dump bank and the sweet teller asks if I like the older halves? Bought the 2 40%s she had in her tray. Not a bad way to end the day.

M0nks,
What kind of grading do you think the Barbers are? V or VF possibly? Also, I hope one or two
are some rarer dates for ya.
BTW everyone, I hope to pick up my two boxes tomorrow. Will be my first boxes in many, many months and I am so looking forward to it. Heck, maybe I can find a Ben or Barber. Also, I am pretty sure they use Strings & Sons and my previous supplying bank used Brinks. So, I will also get to test a new supplier.

S&S only provides wrappers and boxes to carriers, they don't wrap themselves.

if there was a machine to search halve dollars would you use one?

...Why? It's easy to spot silver halves.
I'd buy it if it rewrapped the rolls for me, heck yes. I'd drop $3k+ on one of those if it could process 10-15 rolls a minute. I could dump my rewrapped coin anywhere really, and could probably ramp my volume up to $50k a week or so...

Ftb,
More like $15k for the autowrapper. That's one reason I was asking about teaming before. Lots of cool toys if you have time to do the volume out there.

Well I posted, with a picture, a week or so ago a coin that was missed by someone else, it was even marked, I also found one that was edge marked, both didn't look like silver on the edge, one actually looks all copper, but if you drop them on the table they ring like any other silver and also weigh the same.
I don't know about dumping rolls, unless you did it to block other searchers, I have one guy in town now that wants to pick my brain on how to get money to search........... yeah like I want to have that conversation.
I would rather have a machine to bag and count the coin, I always worry that I have too much or too little in the bag. also one of the automatic roll un-wrappers would be nice too.
Ideal would be an un wrapper dumping into a sorter like a Ryedale, then into a machine to bag or roll. just stand around to clear the jams.....
