Personal Best Haul Ever!!!

Postby silverstacker » Thu Feb 19, 2015 11:52 pm

I started roll searching late last year and would normally find 2 and sometimes up to 4 silver Rosie's per box. I bought maybe 6 boxes of halves total and found probably 8 - 40% and 2 90% halves.

Well this week I spent my week on business in ND and tried two small mom and pop banks for just a box of dimes while I was out there only to be shot down.

Well....on my way back from O'hare today I stopped at one of the branches of my bank and picked up one $250 box of dimes and this is what I found:

69 - 90% Rosie's

And 1 1962 Canadian silver dime

I have problems uploading pics or I would show you the rolls that I took pics of as well as all of them together. I'm so pumped right now!!!! :D :D :D

The poor old bastard probably hasn't even had his funeral yet.

Bully! Go back to the mine and buy all their dimes.
If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.

Just got back from a long trip. Those boxes offered 2 rosies. Hey I'm still happy. Can't get big wins like that all the time. Had some luck this evening on some halves which was nice. Bought a box and got 13 - 40% kennedys and 1 a 90% Kennedy.

Feeling good about that. Teller said that he had one more box of halves if I wanted it so I think I will dump and then take those tomorrow . I will let you know what happens there.

I seem to have a good area here. Minimum 2 rosies per box on dimes and the halves have been nice as well.

Hey it's a free hobby for me.
