WOW! That's awesome. Sounds like someone had cashed in all their (or someone else's) collection tho.. I hope not, but at least they were found by someone who knows their worth!

He found all that it a FED box!?!

I guess this shows that the fed isn't draining off circulating silver.

That might be the best find I have ever heard of too.


Yet,

The Austrian 1915 One Ducat in a cent roll and the guy that found the 1938 D are up there too. :)

That is a great box! I had similar luck about two and a half years ago. I opened a box of halves a bank got from Brinks and a walker was staring me in the face. Your heart skips a beat because you start to think, this could be the box! You figure if there is one, there must be more. Anyways, I pulled 37 silvers from that box and will never forget it:

31 Walkers
2 Barbers (1906 & 1909)!!
1 Franklin
1 '64 Kennedy
2 40% silver

I also found 3 1987 (2 P, 1 D). I remember there were four rolls with Walkers on the end. I always save the rolls with silver on the end for last, to build the suspense and so that I dont get skunked on the last roll. After going through over $100k in halves in 3 years, that is the only box I ever found Barber halves in. It is good to hear that even after so many years, there are still great coins to be found in rolls and purchased at face value!
