My Wife's Four Box Walker and Barber

Folks,
I went out of town last week and my wife covered me by working my four boxes of halves. Goes to show, the most important decision a man makes is who he marries, and I done well! :wink:

She was texting me with the box by box numbers. The first box had her really charged up because she pulled her first Walker. Boxes two and three gave up medium to low numbers, but Box number four had the biggest surprises, she found the rolls had been tampered with -- opened and pressed back in. Inside of two of the rolls she found brand new 2011 Zinc Lincoln Cents, she was smoked that someone had cherry-picked the rolls :angry4: (first time we have ever gotten boxes that were searched). But the perp must have been hasty or careless and only edge-checking, because she found a 1907 Barber that had been over-looked. :laughing9:

The Break-down by box and pics follow. All the best to you! :hello:

Box 1: 1x 90% (1941-D), and 5x 40% (2x 1965, and 1x each 1966, 1967, and 1969-D).
Box 2: 4x 40% (2x 1968-D and 2x 1969-D)
Box 3: 1x 40% (1966) and a nice looking mint clad proof 1991-S.
Box 4: 1x 90% (1907) and two new 2011 cents! ::)

God bless you all,
Steve

Re: My Wife's Four Box Walker and Barber

a teller may of spotted a ender and decided to quickly change out that is my guess.
 

Re: My Wife's Four Box Walker and Barber

So you were basically shorted $1.98 on a box of half dollars which produced a barber... honestly, as long as my boxes are not tampered with and they are not short like that often, it would not be a problem with me. But if this keeps happening... talk to the head maganger of the branch.

Great on the finds!!! I have yet to find my first walker and barber... 3 boxes coming tomorrow afternoon.

Way to go! Nice Barber. I think I may have to move back to Virginia and compete with you some more ;D There appears to be enough silver there for both of us!!!
