At coin roll hunting :yes: Boredom has certainly set in. I was at the bank yesterday and asked the rep if they had any halves. He said someone just brought in 6 rolls on Thursday. I passed on them but today went back and got them. Out of 120 coins, Just 1 silver clad :cheesysmile: A 1968 D. Well, that was fun :popcorn:

That's more luck than I had. My bank didn't have any halfs at all when I asked.
One's better than none . thumbsup01
Congrats :grin:

Not really too bad for the amount you searched. It really can go either way and everything in between for that endeavor. :yes:

But... if you can't be digging holes, it's the next best thing. :happydance01:

Congrats on the silver Steve. :clapping:

I think he should travel the country and dig a SMALL hole, drop in a half in the yard of the peeps on the forum :clapping: . Then we could go searching in the snow. Except for Cliffy :grin: :grin: :clapping: . Ops I forgot.... :behave: you can't dig in Minnesota this time of year.

I finally got to the banks in town and got some halves. I got three full rolls at one bank that had no silver in them. I also asked if they had loose halves. The big bank in town sold me $20.00 of loose halves and i saw one i knew was silver. After looking at the bunch of loose ones i had two 1967 and two 1968. I'll see if i can get more there tomorrow. I don't want to be a pest. :grin:

Got $60.00 worth again today. Found one 1968. They still won't tell me how many they have! The teller did ask if i had an account and i said i don't know (my wife had one through her flower shop at one time). But she asked the manager, who said it was o.K.
I think i'll wait awhile before i go back again. :grin:
