Monday Night Half Time

Postby beauanderos » Tue Nov 30, 2010 12:39 am

Got my six boxes. Licking my chops. First box, about ten rolls in... a worn-down raggedy-edged coin... thinking it's a Walker. Turns out to be a 1905 Barber half in maybe AG6-8. My first Barber!!! ImageImage Image I don't care if the rest of the boxes are skunks... this is SO cool!

Nice One. Still haven't found one of those guys in my boxes yet.
If you are waiting for the "correction" to buy you need to realize that the increasing prices ARE the correction.

Are you guys noticing more mixed results with your boxes?

It is like one box will be a really great box and then 2 or 3 are skunks or the box will just have one or two 40%

Yesterday, I picked up 4 boxes

2 - skunks
1 - just one 40%
1 - had 5 Benjamins, 2 1964, 13 40% halves.

Follow up. No Grand Slam, darn it! Found a Kennedy, a Walker, and a Barber 90's... but no Franklin. Oh well, I'm more than satisfied. Total for the six boxes 4 90%, 15 40%
