So I've been waiting to post this for a while. Earlier this year, I ordered 4 boxes of half dollars. I went to pick them up and the teller said there were also loose rolls of halves. I assumed they were clad dumps. He asked if I wanted them. The other teller said something like "they have a lot of silver in them". I was certain at this point that they were clad dumps.
But, since it was 18 rolls and I had the cash on me, I obeyed the "Buy Them All" commandment.
I got to the car and was shocked when the 1st roll was almost all silver!
I had a function with one of my kids that night and could hardly wait until I got home (well actually I didn't.....opened 3 rolls....lots of silver and my 1st solid roll!).
I had the kids help me that night.....photos and videos from each roll.
Totals......approx 170 silver from 18 rolls. 3x90%.....the rest 40%.
3 rolls of uncirculated Bicentenniels as well.
Hope this is not my last score like this but we'll see.
I think the other 4 boxes produced a measly 3 x 40%.
