I went to one of my favorite banks this week to pick up an order of halves. The teller (now my VERY FAVORITE teller) said that in addition to my boxes, she had some rolls for me, and did I want them. As any CRH'er worth their salt would do, I eagerly said yes. She sold me $213.00 additional, twenty-one rolls and six loose coins. I stuffed them into my pockets and loaded the boxes in my truck. I hadn't driven very far before curiosity got the best of me, especially since the wrappers looked to be fairly antique. I grabbed a roll at random, opened an end and poured twenty 90% Kennedys into my hand! This was a first for me, as up to that date, I had never found a full roll of silver. I immediately called my wife and relayed the news. I told her that I was afraid to open another roll because I was afraid that it would NOT be silver. She said to go ahead and open another one, and I commenced to pour a full roll of Walkers and Franklins into my hand! When I told her that, she made me promise to stop opening them and bring them on home so she could share in the excitement. I raced home and we slowly opened the rest of the rolls, savoring each happy moment of discovery. Roll after roll was 100% silver keepers! I made the comment that "This is almost as good as sex!!", and she did not disagree (which makes me suspect that maybe I should be spending LESS time CRH'ing). By the time the smoke had cleared, all 21 rolls were silver. There were 5 Walker's, 35 Franklin's, 325 90% Kennedy's (most of which were in pristine condition!), and 56 40%ers. Yes, there was even an extra coin in one of the 21 rolls! 421 keepers!! 129.66 ounces of silver, all in one relatively small transaction.

This was the biggest hit I have had in three years of CRHing. Needless to say, today I am taking a big bag of goodies to the branch for "putting up with me".

Still Grinning, Grizz

Thanks, mistergee!
Nice to have a civilized response, as this thread seems to have gotten hijacked to the Outer Limits somewhere along the way.......

what offended u about it??? just wondering, not trying to be rude about it, just curious about it. :tongue3:

Maybe he is unable to make that comparison and is a little bit irritated. :laughing7: :dontknow:
 

"This is downright offensive."

I sincerely apologize to anyone I may have offended.

Foghorn Leghorn said it best;

"Lookit here son, I say son, did ya see that hawk after those hens? He scared 'em! That Rhode Island Red turned white. Then blue. Rhode Island. Red, white, and blue. That's a joke, son. A flag waver. You're built too low. The fast ones go over your head. Ya got a hole in your glove. I keep pitchin' 'em and you keep missin' 'em. Ya gotta keep your eye on the ball. Eye. Ball. I almost had a gag, son. Joke, that is."

He does this all the time. What others say is offensive and what he says isn't. wish the powers that be would fix this problem for good. :help:
 

Coincrazed I would appreciate it if you would not try to interpret what I have written. At the age of 15 you still have some growing up to do. So if what mild adult humor is being talked about here by a group of adults offends you then perhaps this is not a place for a child. I hope you can interpret what I am saying. I will stick to what I have always said if you stick to talking about coins you should be fine.
