I picked up and searched an amazing box of half dollars yesterday.

So I get a whole bunch of boxes every week, and once in a while, I hit gold. Well, silver, but you get the idea. Yesterday, I searched my best box yet, by a mile.

More silver than you can shake a stick at! To be exact, there were 20 Franklins, 99 1964's, and 82 40%. Now, typically, you get way, way more 40% than 90%, my historical average is about a 3:1 ratio of 40% to 90%... so this is a fairly extreme outlier. 201 keepers in a single box blows away my prior best of 121, which was mostly 40%ers. Just thought I'd share, I feel kind of bad for the person who dumped $1k+ in silver for face value.
