Very nice finds, GA, a 90%, and 40%ers, including a 1965 which in my opinion is the hardest made for circulation 40% date, I probably find more 1964's than 1965's. The clad proofs are neat, amazing how many end up in circulation. I have a few theories on how they ended up in circulations: 1.) many of the proofs sets from the 1970's and 1980's had little premium over face at times, simply no interest, and the coins were purposely spent. 2.) dealers buy entire collections to get a few coins (maybe 90% silver) and figured in improperly stored or mishandled proofs at face since they have little collector value. 3) big time coin resellers (think like newspaper/and non-collector mags) buy up hundreds to thousands of sets in bulk and turned in mishandled coins. 4) the mint dumped thousands of left over proof coins or imperfect proofs (QC pulls and collector returns) into circulation.
Pretty good hunt, my credit union now doesn't order halves, dollars or $2 bills anymore. Have to drove to my other bank that I use for personal banking and get them there.
@@GASilverHunter I know, it's getting harder to get them. Thankfully my other bank will order me 2-3 boxes a week, but I've been getting lots of new 2022 D.
And it's not the bank's fault, it's the armored car companies that don't want to bring them. They also limited me to two boxes of each regular denomination so that's what I do now. Stupid Garda World.
I have a quick question. I've been trying to get my hands on some customer wrapped rolls but my bank doesn't sell them. Any suggestions? Also nice hunt!
I get all my CWR from the bank. You could check gas stations or grocery stores. you can try other banks in your area if your main bank doesn't sell them.
5:50 - pretty sure the red "x" you discounted as some sort of damage is a mint rejection mark to indicate this coin should've been destroyed or perhaps it was done by a teller at a bank also to indicate the need to return for destruction. Either way, that's not damage or indiscriminate disfiguring. And it would be foolish of you to use acetone to remove that marking - would be taking away additional value. That's up to you, though.
You apparently didn't watch until the end. Mark is already gone. Also don't believe the mint writes on coins if they are going to destory them. They just destroy them.
Great video always nice to find silver!
Some different kind of finds and silver too, nice hunt!
I like to find errors.
Great video nice 1964 half dollar and a 1965 half dollar and congrats on getting 4 72 s proof half dollars thanks for sharing GA silver hunter
Thanks 👍
Good hunt!!!
Thanks Fred!
Congratulations on the finds. Nice video.
Thanks 👍
That's a solid hunt.40%,90%,4 proofs and a variety.
I like it when we find a lot of different things too. Of course a butt-pile of silver is also pretty nice from time to time.
@@GASilverHunter It would be pretty nice if the entire box was silver.
Nice hunt.
Great hunt. Always enjoy your videos.
Thanks Jeff!
Gotta love the silver!!
I do!
Great hunt GA. Really like the error.

Agree with you.
Good hunt! SILVER!! Thank you!
Thanks Robert!
Nice little score. Had my dream box there lol. Those proofs looked stellar for coming from circulation
They really did. Was crazy to get 4 of the same one.
Any silver is a good hunt
Amen!
Nice hunt! I just ended my skunk streak with a box that had a benji 3 40%s and a beautiful 77 proof!
Nice haul!
@@GASilverHunteri have also had luck with boxes that have had writing in the past. I wonder what it is from
Nice
Thanks
GA , I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now, very professional and entertaining
Hi John! Appreciate the long time viewership. Thanks for the comment and feedback.

Unfortunately I am hearing this more and more. Hopefully I don't get hit with it too soon.

Have you found any 1970 silver half dollars?
Only 1.
