Two more for the night.

Half Box #155

2 1968D

2 Magician Coin - British version.

Over a period of a year and around 350 boxes I found one. Today I found 3 more. I guess there is a magician somewhere that was hard up for cash.

Half Box #156

1 1964

If you are waiting for the "correction" to buy you need to realize that the increasing prices ARE the correction.

From my Friday purchase of a sealed cloth bag of 473 Ikes and an extra 72 from other banks I got skunked as far as silver (I think I've only found maybe 10 silver after checking 20,000 of them) I did find about 30 that need further examining for BUs. I always look for 1972 Type 2 (proof reverse). So far I've found 2 of them in all the Ikes I've searched over the past 4 years.

I also searched through 15 CWRs of halves. Found one 1968-D and nothing else worth mentioning.

And finally, 20 CWRs of quarters I bought for a friend's business. I of course had to edge search them. No Silver, but I found 1 Mount Hood, 2 D.C.s, 1 Am Samoa, 1 V.I.
I've been accumulating CWRs of cents for two plus years, waiting for that rainy day ... well guess what, that day has arrived ... I'm broke ... time to get rid of the two tons of zinc!

$500 Box Halves - Brink's Box

2 Clad NIFCs - '02D,'05D

...and about 80% of the box was filled with BU 1998-P halves.

A fellow searcher in my area warned me about getting boxes with a bunch of BU 1998 halves in them. I think the best way to get rid of them is the brute force method - after geting them from our source bank (Brink's), we can just dump them onto our dump bank (Dunbar - Union Bank). If the 2 of us move these halves, $2k or more each week, we will get rid of them once and for all. It's a lot easier when there are two of us doing it. Are you out there, fellow searcher? If so, thanks... ;)
