This is a fun thread... congrats on all of your finds!
Out of curiosity, how many coins are you searching to find them? It seems you're finding silver at a much faster rate than we do in the States...

I have been searching roughly 1500-2250 dollars worth of coins per day,roughly enough for 2 boxes of quarters and dimes. As for finding silver, I attribute the success to my girlfriend as she seems to have a knack at analyzing locations that has better chances. Edited by JustACollector

And today my girlfriend really, really, really showed how good her intuition is.
She told me to go check out this bank near where she lived and after looking through 3K worth of quarters and dimes I found a total of 111 silver coins today. Yes, 111 silver coins, 19 quarters and 92 dimes.
