to paraphrase Forest Gump! Well, this week Forest was certainly right....Boxes 1, 4, and 5 were total duds....not one coin worth fooling with. But MY OH MY! What Boxes 2 and 3 held for KT to discover!!!:yes::yes:

Box 2 contained 30, yes 30, 40% Ag Kens!

And Box 3 yielded 1 64 Ken, 21 40% Ag Kens (one of them a rare 1970!), 1 NIFC to keep, and 1 interesting sticker Ken!

So the :D:D:D:D:D total for this week is: 1 64 Ken, 51 40% Ag Kens, 1 NIFC, and 1 sticker Ken!

The pictures will tell the entire story, and reasonably well shows what KT has found the bell curve distribution of 40% Kens to be found when CRHing boxes of halves.

Let the pics begin....and enjoy! :kingdances::kingdances::kingdances:

Wow ... just wow! Congrats KT, on your perseverance and on your good fortune ! I have not been posting as I have been on a 4-5 week dry spell. It gets boring repeating that he boxes have been duds, but when you can post about chocolates, well them my friend, you should be posting.
 
Wow! What a load for the royal vault! Kind of makes up for a couple of skunk weeks, wouldn't you say?! Impressive week there, KT. If only the other 3 boxes were as bountiful. Great score.

Royal thanks, jkbemdavis! It just seems that it really is about preserverance when it comes to CRHing for silver halves...and His Majesty does understand about your frustration with dud boxes. Only thing KT can think in this instance is that someone's hoard got dumped and was not too heavily mixed, so that when Loomis did the boxing it was spread out over only those two boxes. All 5 of this weeks boxes had the same code # on them, so they appear to be in the same run.. Anyway, ol' KT was a mighty jolly ol' King over this take! :lol::lol::lol:

Junkminer, Royal thanks for your thoughts! It is now quite apparent that His Majesty made a wise decision to purchase another treasure chest and get it moved to the Royal Vault Room in the Castle Dungeon! At this rate KT will have to hire some village peons to carry the silver load for lockup down there. :laughing::laughing:

Having 5 boxes like those two in one week is the bucketlister for KT, but His Majesty just might blow a blood vessel from all the :kingdances::kingdances::kingdances::kingdances: that would cause in the Castle Ball Room!:laughing::laughing:
 
Awesome job! I took your lead and decided today to ask for halves. Some older lady had dropped off quite a few home rolled halves. I opened em and my eyes almost fell out. After just eight rolls opened I am now the possessor of approximately 50(yes you read that right) 40% halves. I am going back 2mrrw to get the rest I know she dropped off. And I am bringing Boston Cream Dinkins for the nice teller who helped me out.
 
Man, that's great luck, RichieSoprano! Due to a helpful teller, KT got to pickup 48 halves, and searched them right in the bank, recovering 8 40%ers....not a bad deal! Hope for you to get another good load of silver out of the rest of those you get at the bank, if they are left.
