It's Been A While, But the Rolls Finally Paid Off

After a loooong dry spell my boxes of half dollars gave up a little silver today:
First off, there were 94 90% silver coins including a 1923-S
As if that weren't enough, there were 16 40% coins
Then, for the icing on the cake, a 1986-S Ellis Island half and No FG varieties of 1972-D and 1982-P.
These all were in two $500 boxes. Me and the wife had a lot of fun with this!

That is awesome! Mine have been duds lately but never like what you found!
It looks like some heirs dumped that "bunch of old coins" ... much to your advantage!

This is not legitimate until we see the Starbucks coffee cup next to the rolls.
Sorry, I make my own coffee.
What. No gold?
The pardon is for tyrants. They like to declare pardons on holidays, such as the birthday of the dictator, or Christ, or the Revolution. Dictators should be encouraged to keep it up. And we should be encouraged to remember that the promiscuous dispensation of clemency is not a sign of political liberality. It is instead one of those valuable, identifying marks of tyranny.

Congratulations!
Funny when I read your thread title I thought you had finally paid off the loan for a Rolls Royce. 😂

Anyone else curious as to what the rolls look like?
Hardly ever see pictures of the type of rolls.
Old wrappers might be good sign.
These are machine wrapped Loomis rolls. My bank orders the boxes for me.
What?? Say what?? Did you say machine wrapped Loomis rolls?
