Got $500 worth of halves at the bank

Among the finds: 29-1964's (3 sharp bu-like), 1 bu-nice toner.
63-40% silvers.

I'm gonna order another one soon.

All n All it was fun.imageimage

    That is one of the better half dollar finds. The best I have done was out of 3 rolls, 1.5 rolls were mixed 90 and 40%.

  • did you have any problems getting the bank to take back the rest?

    Why would you want the bank to take them back? Especially if you plan to get more? You want them to just recycle the ones you already searched?

    When I do this, I get from one bank and then return to my credit union. Keeps them as separated as I can even though it is in the same area.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

  • Thank you all. I hope not, my bank as one of those free coin counting machinesimage

    I plan to take them back to another branch far away!

    If I lived near a casino that had 50¢ machines, I'd cash them in there...he!! I'd search the ones from the machines too.
