Today one of the guys found a 40% JFK in the collection. I got so happy when I saw the five halves. One silver out of the five. I quickly rescued it and wrote a check to my church for the spot price of the silver. 1 coin saved from circulation :D

My cousin's father in law is the treasurer of his church and found a 1 oz silver bar in the plate a while back, which he bought. I always look at the change that comes in, but I've never found any silver. I do buy all of the nickels and copper pennies at a slight markup, though. :)

3 times in about a year I've been looking.
