Officially off the half dollar bandwagon

[bigscores]

Almost 2 months with little to no production from my boxes so I am done with halves. I guess since TimZim busted out, there has been a pretty negative effect on the amount of silver that circulates. Boxes move slower, backlogs are generated, new inventory is shipped out since they have 40+ more boxes laying around per week now... Zzzzzzzzzzzz. Somebody wake me up when TZ is back at it.

OTOH, Ike bags are still treating me well. My last bag produced a few dozen 40%ers, by far my best bag, that was a wonderful surprise. I've now made 6 '72 T2 Ikes in 64 ($200-$250 each) and a whole bunch in 62/63. I'm pretty sure I have a raw one for my next submission that will make 65, that will be a great payday for a $20 investment.

I'm pretty happy with the way my dealing on eBay is going as well, it sure generates fantastic returns if you have a good eye for coins. Just figured some of you might want an update on what I've been doing these days. Hope you all are well and stacking the silver.

Well, today was not too bad.

The bank that lost $181 in my $1000 dump one day had a miscalculation on my dump today, $1070 on a $1000 dump. I even told the teller and she said, that is what it says, that is what I give. I said OK, well maybe next week I can get that other $111 back, she laughed.

My 5 boxes today produced 12/40% and a single 64 for a total of $42 for the weekend, sort of like old times

One my my banks told me today that they have two boxes of halves I can pick up if I want to. In the past this would have excited me but now am torn (half excitement/half dread of wasting my time dealing with two more skunks). This particular bank has Brinks boxes, which have sucked for a while.

Just tell the teller that you're bringing them back if there's no silver.

I just scream at them and demand a refund if I don't get what I want

Picked up one since I was on foot and didn't feel like lugging two. Very skunky so far - as expected. I'll still get them some Christmas treats since they are so nice about ordering boxes for me, but I don't feel generous given how poorly their boxes have produced. Bah humbug.
