I would like to share a crazy find that I made today with you guys, so here is the story...
I've been wanting to hit up this small town bank about 10 min from my house for a while now, and today I had the opportunity to go. Well before I made the trip, I decided to call and see if they had any half dollars. They said they had around 500 dollars worth so I asked if they would hold it for me until I got there. I get there and the teller tells me that all the rolls have accumulated over a span of time and thanked me for taking them off their hands. Anyways, I get to the car and see some are labeled with years and everything. I opened them at home and I was shocked and amazed at what I found...
$550 in CWR's
133 90%
-45 Walking Liberty
-37 Franklin
-51 1964 Kennedy
294 40%
-21 1965
-47 1966
-111 1967
-78 1968D
-37 1969D
And all this comes after I had some big finds the past couple weeks with halves..I guess I'll keep riding my good luck streak! Just felt like sharing this with fellow roll hunters! I promise to have pics up by tonight or tomorrow.

Congratulations! My sister use to work at a bank in 1970's and it was not unusual for people for dump silver coins back into circulation at the bank. Anyway, one day a lady came in with a bunch of coins and wanted to cash them in at face value, so my sister bought all the silver ones. The lady then got out some gold coins and wanted to cash them in! She told her to take those to a coin shop for more money!
