wheatchaser140 Pillar of the Community United States 2368 Posts	Posted 10/21/2013 5:40 pm I'm in a small to medium suburban town that's mostly residential. Is it true that cities are poor areas for CRHing? With so many businesses and people around? I find an average of about 12 wheats a box where I live. How about people in rural areas, have you ever struck it rich or have higher find rates? Just curious! Report this Post to the Staff

DeadheadRI New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 10/21/2013 6:17 pm I'm about an hour from you and Always get 20-24 Wheats per box. Don't think I ever saw 25, but 20 is pretty much the bottom figure.. mostly 50's with the occasional score. Report this Post to the Staff
Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 10/21/2013 6:40 pm I have better luck in towns than city's. In the town I find more older and all nickel nickels, but lacks Americans. In the city I find a normal amount of all nickel nickels, but not as much older ones and lot of Americans. Report this Post to the Staff
wheatchaser140 Pillar of the Community United States 2368 Posts	Posted 10/21/2013 6:55 pm @ DeadheadRI Yeah, my wheat haul per box really fluctuates. My top is 25 wheats, my low was probably 7 to 10. Usually I get almost 20 but with the occasional low box it averages it out to 15. @ Joseph7420 What you're saying makes perfect sense. In smaller towns there's less people and less commerce, keeping older coins in circulation. In a city with lots of businesses and people (not to mention lots of American tourists) coins would change hands quickly and be worn out faster. The influx of tourists would bring in foreign coins. I wonder if someone in a very small, agriculturally based community would have very good luck with nickels, like a 5% buffalo score. I don't think I'll move to anywhere like this, but hey, I can dream can't I? Report this Post to the Staff

When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72 Report this Post to the Staff
