Apush: New Order Bank & Happy Camper

Hi All,
Took a personal day today to, well, do nothing. I did hit a few banks and found a new order bank. Glad I did.

I had been to this particular bank before and everytime scored two or three 40% from the tellers' trays. Today I enter and they remember me. I asked if they had any halves and the tellers says "how many do you want?" Well, that is a loaded question. After our tap dance, I get $300 non-CR'd halves. Then, she asked me if I was a customer and I said no. She is okay with that. I asked her if I did open an account, could I get any other halves she had available. She said she had a full box on hand (includes the $300 I had already garnered) and I could have an extra $100. Done deal. And, I could now order boxes any time I wanted to, as long as it was a minimum of 1K. Account opened.

She gives me the box and I don't give it a second glance until I get home. I open 3 rolls--all clad. Then, I see something that really makes me pause--an ender. The reverse is similar, but different then the Kennedy. Dang it if it isn't my second Barber! 1910-S! Now, this box was open! The teller had opened it right in front of me and it only contained the $400 I had purchased. Then, I hit 2-1964s and 5-40%. One was another ender. I still have $250 left to go, but I just wanted to post the following, "It is still out there!" Quote by Rileyboy. I want to post a pic, but I just don't like that sidebar!

Apush, hope the remaining rolls are just as well producing or better. Congrats on your barber ender, and a new supply bank!

...Now I just wish banks around me had $1,000 minimal orders on halves. They will only order me 2 boxes each time.
 

Re: Apush: New Order Bank & Happy Camper

A barber ender? YOWZA!!

No work + lots of silver = great day. :icon_thumleft:

Hope this new bank becomes a flood of silver for you.

Apush , Christmas Greetings to you ( a little early !) 1910-S Barber ! Ridiculous , when you
consider that someone just unknowingly or uncaringly (or both )- just walked up to a coin counter
and tossed that in . Happy Hunting ! Argentium. (PS. , the only Barbers i've found have
been dimes - dug up with my White's MXT. I think 5 total - in 5 years . )

Re: Apush: New Order Bank & Happy Camper

Great score Apush. I hope you took a pic of the barber ender, if so post it. Good luck with the rest of the box!
 

Re: Apush: New Order Bank & Happy Camper

I was missing your posts, Apush!

Glad to see you are still making those amazing scores!!

...Maybe you should take personal days more often ;-)
 

Re: Apush: New Order Bank & Happy Camper

Final Tally:
$400 rolls =

1-Barber
2--1964s
9-40%

Not bad in my neck of the woods. Can't pick up my first batch (4 boxes) until the week of December 19th.

Re: Apush: New Order Bank & Happy Camper

Congrats Apush! I've never had a barber ender. Pretty rare find indeed. Just getting a barber in a box lately is so rare. I've had commemoratives, odd foreign coins, walkers, bens that are enders but never a barber. I seem to remember one other that was posted here but your's may be one of the few of the year. Nice find there!

Great find on the Barber. I have yet to find one in the wild, guess I'll have to resort to buying them.
