Keith,

When they let me in the vault today they had six boxes,two of which were for another customer. The teller let me take a peek at the boxes and I spotted 2 with silver showing.
The 5th box which was a skunk I picked up at my skunk bank.

Best

nice results, and should i open an account at a td bank? what bank do you order from?


that is the oldest walker i have heard of, very rare to get an old one? i guess the 40s are the most minted dates?

Nice job.  Sounds like your back in the silver again.  I guess the only way I'll get Walkers is to do boxes but I just don't think I can handle the skunk boxes along the way.

D2,

I order from 5 different banks. It is really just a crapshoot. One bank is hot another branch of the same bank in the next town is all skunks. I really can't figure it out. The only thing that I do know is that the chance of me hitting a dream box is about the same as winning the lottery.
