Country, can you add 1 more 40%er to the numbers for me for this batch. Missed it somehow and found it while dumping. Correct count should now be 26 40%ers.

Half Box #83 - Strike One

Half Box #84 - Strike Two

Half Box #85 - Strike Three and I've been Skunked Out.

One bit of good news. Tonight my little island girl hands me 4 1964's and 5 40%'s she got today. This morning at the bank when they were pulling the deposits out of the night drop she heard it THRU the canvas drop bag and made sure she ended up with that one. It was a drop from the Dollar Store. What a girl :D Sad thing is her haul is almost more than my total for the month in silver after 33 boxes.

Not bad!
I have another box waiting for me to pick up monday. Hopefully the good luck continues.



Picked up the 2nd box:

Folks, this month I'm the Rodney Dangerfield of sorters. These boxes are giving me no respect.

Half Box #88 - Skunk

Half Box #89 - Skunk

Let's see, quickly looking thru my records I believe that is 26 skunks out of the last 30 boxes and a total of 67 skunks out of the 89 boxes for the year.

It's a good think I'm persistant. Of course my wife says that I'm just too damn stubborn. ;)
