.............like fine wine ?
I had purposely avoided a particular bank for a couple of months, even though they could get me as many boxes of halves that I wanted. The boxes just weren't producing, and the time I took looking through those, took me away from potentially productive boxes.
Well it was Saturday, I had nothing coming in until Monday; and 10 $100 bills 'burning a hole in my pocket".
So I stopped by this bank I had been avoiding and they had four boxes in the vault. Now, these were boxes that they had ordered before I stopping visiting them in October.........and were just sitting there gathering dust. Well, I had just the $1000 on me; so I bought two of the boxes.
The first was Box # 340 for the year; and (remember) it's been sitting in their vault since October. It held a 64p, 65, 66x2, 67x9, 68dx12, 69dx5 for a remarkable 30 keepers; or a 3.0% keeper rate !
The other box, #341, also there since October, had the same CWI # as the first, the same inspector and the same date. However, it only produced a 59d, 64d, 67 and an 05 proof (CuNi). Still four keepers, with two of them being 90%ers, but perhaps this box had sat a little too long; and was beginning to "turn". 8)
Cheers everyone !
