Hey guys havent had too much to post lately as my business is going really well and Im only doing 4 or 6 boxes a week. But they have been pretty good on 40% ers and I avg about 2 oz a week lately. I still stop in here and there. Dont always have time to reply tho.

Can you spot the 40% silver halves in this roll?

Alright guys... no one guessed correctly.

The first 5 coins (from the top, or left side) are not silver. The other 15 are silver... I missed the first 2 and luckily my ears are in tune with the sound of silver and I picked them out of my bag after dumping them into it...

They were super tough to spot and was the first time in over 2500 boxes that I did not rim spot the silver at first glance... so make sure you sound check!!!

My 3rd Washington commemorative. The others were S mint proofs and in much better condition. But still a great find!!!

Ya look at those 40%ers in my hand, most look just like clad!! So odd, searching over a million dollars in halves and first one that really tricked me...

HH all!

just keep stacking, just keep stacking, stacking stacking stacking
 

Ya the end 6 or 7 silvers are what I normally find silvers to look like!!

So yeah ppl, if you rim check, make sure you are sound checking also!! That clank definitely surprised me when I heard it! as I (usually)always can spot the silver right away.

Those are the Bronziest Silvers I've seen!
 

I knew this would be a great "guess that 40%" thread, they fooled the hell outa me!! And so many of them too!! lol... wonder how they were kept to make this happen to them, even when I looked at the face, they didnt look like silver to me, it even took a few seconds to register the date in my head... lol
 

Wow now that you say that, I can see how the other 15 are silver. Good trick... I got one right though! haha
