My 2nd good box of the year w/ Kens, a Ben, Walker & '76S silver ender
Well last Thursday I got my best box in 2 years with 10 x 40% & 2 x 90% Ken's. Well my box from the same bank this week was just as good. It started with a '67 in each of the first two rolls so I was hopeful that I had another good box. Then a few more rolls later a '68D then a few rolls later I was surprised with a '64 Ken that had a strange colored edge that looks more clad than silver (see pic with coin in roll), as opposed to the '64 Kens I found last week that were bright shinny white.
Well then a few more 40% then in the 5th roll from the end I found my first Ben of the year. Then in the 3rd roll from the end I noticed the roll looked short and I counted 19 coins...oh well I'm not complaining. Then the 2nd roll from the end I flipped the roll over and notice a silver looking face and look closer and its a '76S ender. Then in the very last roll I see another old silver looking edge and take a closer look to see its my first Walker in quite a while, a dark discolored looking '45.
So this box sure had a nice assortment of keepers: a '64 Ken, a 51D Ben, '45 Walker, and 7 x 40% including a '76S ender which I'm pretty certain is silver but I haven't even opened the roll yet to confirm for certain...or to see if there might be more keepers in the roll. So what do u all think? Sure looks silver to me. Boxes like this one sure are fun to search.
I ordered 2 more boxes from this same bank for next week so I'm sure hoping my silver streak continues a little longer at least.
H$H!
Correction: I finally decided to open the roll with the '76S ender and I was rather surprised to find out its a clad proof. Oh well, it still had 9 silver keepers which is a good box for me.
