If you read through the Half roll searching thread you will see that people have found several Booker T's and even a few Stone Mountains I recall.

I have found a 1982 George Washington and a 1925 Stone Mountain half dollar with my dad in coins from the bank. Had to go through many many coins however to find them (among other finds).

You say that like it's nothing special. I would love to find something like that in a roll of halves. I just went through 10 rolls today and found nothing, it seemed like every roll had the same dates.

I go through alot of halves, about 2 or 3 boxe a week. I just started this year though. I have not found any commomoratives. I find a fair aount of silver, in streaks of course, and I have found 1 proof, kinda banged up.

That requires money. I don't have $500 just laying around, and if I did I wouldn't be spending it on frivolous things like half dollars. Ten rolls is good enough for now.
