Well, after nine straight skunks of half dollar boxes $4500.00 from Bank of America, my persistence has paid off. This time I had my credit union order ten boxes of halves. All ten produced silver, and how! Here are the results:

Edit: All were String rolls. The two walkers are 1943, 1944.

5/6/2011
Box #10, $500.00 Halves: 17-Franklins, 1967, 1968D, 2-1969
Box #11, $500.00 Halves: 19-Franklins, 2-1967, 1968D, 2-1969D
Box #12, $500.00 Halves: 2-1964, 1965, 1967, 2-1968D, 1969D
Box #13, $500.00 Halves: 2-Franklins, 2-1964, 1966, 6-1967, 3-1968D
Box #14, $500.00 Halves: 1-Franklin, 2-1965, 2-1966, 1967, 4-1968D, 3-1969D
Box #15, $500.00 Halves: 34-Franklins, 1966, 1968D
Box #16, $500.00 Halves: 2-Walking Liberties, 3 Franklins, 1964, 2-1965, 2-1966, 7-1967, 2-1968D, 2-1969D

5/7/2011
Box #17, $500.00 Halves: 68-Franklins, 2-1968D, 1969D
Box #18, $500.00 Halves: 9-Franklins, 3-1967, 1968D
Box #19, $500.00 Halves: 1-Frankin, 2-1964, 1965, 2-1966, 2-1967, 1968D

So, the totals for all ten boxes are:
154 Franklins
2 Walking Liberties
7 1964 Kennedys
66 1965-1969 40% Silver Kennedys

http://www.coinflation.com puts the total silver value of these coins, with Friday's Spot close at $35.62/ozt., at $2,447.71. Not a bad weekend's work! Face value of the silver coins is $115.00.

Here's a picture of the take:

Definitely. Unfortunately my credit union said they don't want to order coins for me on a regular basis due to the ordering and transport costs. But perhaps I can "bribe" them by offering to pay those costs, or with Starbucks gift cards. ;) We'll see on Monday when I call the vault teller. It would be nice if I could get them out of the same vault. If I can persuade her, I'll order 18 boxes this time.
