Silver Santa on the Stagecoach

Postby TwoAndAHalfCents » Tue Dec 10, 2013 11:05 pm

I stopped at two Wells Fargo branches on the way home from work today. Each one had two rolls of halves available. The pair from one branch were bank rolled and both skunks. Even the two extra coins the teller had in her tray were clad. But the two rolls from the other branch... I just peeked in the rolls. Oh the lovely sound of silver. I think I saw more silver edges than copper clad. Still haven't had a chance to sort them out. Maybe later tonight.

Updated with the details:

Roll #1: 10 silver
Roll #2: 12 silver

1966 x2
1967 x10
1968-D x7
1969-D x3

All of the silver halves were 40%. No 90% this time but I don't mind.

Nice! This gives me motivation to try some halves again at the bank.
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered....The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
