Just looking to see what all of you found in 2011. I see a lot of your finds in your signatures. Let's post them all here. Got this idea from seeing fistfullofdirt's signature with his 2011 silver finds. Here's what I got: 40 boxes of cents: ----------- 1 Indian Head cent 311 Wheat Cents 56 boxes of nickels: ----------- 16 Buffalo nickels 42 Silver War Nickels 53 boxes of dimes: ----------- 2 Mercury dimes 65 Silver Roosevelt dimes 1 Canadian Silver Dime 0 boxes of quarters (Cash register find): ----------- 1 Silver Washington quarter $142.50 face value of halves searched: ----------- 1 Walking Liberty half dollar 3 40% JFK Halves This was my first year of searching and I didn't start until february/march. (list doesn't include varieties I found or proofs) Edited by murrellington 01/06/2012 2:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff

ancientcoinguy Pillar of the Community United States 842 Posts	Posted 01/06/2012 10:16 am Wow murry you must do a box a day to get that much silver! I only searched nickels in 2011, and started at the end of May. 26.4 boxes yielded: 1 Liberty 9 Buffalo 25 Silver 4 Proof I already did box #1 for 2012 the other day and found nothing of interest. Well, on to the next! Good luck this year, searchers! Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 01/06/2012 11:41 am Nice going. Lots of stuff popping up due to the economy and people dumping coins from old jars, cans, etc to the banks. Report this Post to the Staff
