I went back to get the other 5 boxes today as I got 1 yesterday (2 boxes from 3 different banks). 1 bank forgot to order them for me, then another bank only ordered 1 box for me. I started off getting my 2nd box from the bank that gave me my 1st dream box yesterday. An wouldn't you know it, it was another dream box!!! Oh yea, the 2 dream boxes were dated Oct. 14th. I started finding silver right off the bat, then about half way through I found my very first Walking Liberty half while hunting!!! Its an early one to boot, 1918!!! That box contained:

1918 Walker

1964d 3
1965 2
1966 2
1967 5
1968d 7

Then I went to the bank that only ordered 1 box for me. It only had 3 silvers:

1966 1
1969d 2

So in total I got 23 keepers from 2 boxes. 4 90% and 19 40% for a total of 4.2568oz.

Here is the pix, I took the pix in the dining room and the lighting is not the best - enjoy...

I also found this half that I think is a "clipped" error. But it maybe just mutilated by somebody just killin time. What do you think?

They are long single layer brown cardboard boxes with yellow writing.
 

Lady looks good for being so old, congrats. I got a double clipped last year, full half a box was BU 99d's- I spect the whole box was and someone deposited half and it got refilled. Anyways here's mine. HH Mark

sweet finds, nice walker
 

One pic looks like a clip to me, but the side pic looks like after mint damage. The clips I've found have a smooth look from the side.
