$2 notes 3 red seal notes, one is a 1963 Star. Currently on sale on E-bay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190518792680&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

2 Sud African 1d, with a holes drilled in them found the same day a bank 60 miles apart.
1 Magician coin. $1.35 trick, brand new these sell for $50 check out this link: http://www.ronjo.com/magic/JM-0042.html

I still do not know how you guys keep your stats so accurately. Most of of our halves this month were found in customer rolls. I think we found 5 halves in the 4 boxes we searched.

We found the magician coin because it was rejected by the coin counter at the bank. Not all rejected halves are magician coins, some regular halves get rejected by accident. An easy way to tell if the half is a magician coin is when half is rejected check to see if the head and the tail do not line up. They often sound hollow. Chances are good when both halves are locked together they will be off. I separate them with a bang ring (you can see one in the closeup photos) that you can buy for a few bucks at a magic shop.

Keep on Searching Dad and Tanner

PS We will be heading to our cabin this month and we will get to visit the Happy Bank :)

Looks like your bills are going through the roof. Congrats, Jim
 

Looks like you are doing pretty good on your $2 notes. Over $40 right now for a $6 investment. Plus you did alright on your other finds. A lot better then I did....Matt
