About $20,000 total last year in customer rolled dimes, and about $7,000+ in boxed dimes and halves.

I used to go through three boxes of cents per week but now I do one. Much more enjoyable.

If I push it...I can run through 4-5 boxes of cents in a week. Not easy though and your eyes will go buggy.

It also depends on which denomination you are searching and if your just mining silver, looking for varieties, looking for certain dates & their are a lot of other variables that will come in to play. If you check each coin with a loop...I run a box of cents every 2 days or so.

I've only been doing CRH for a little over 3 weeks, and I'm averaging about 3 boxes of coin per week. I expect that will decrease a bit as routine takes over. I can only do one box in a sitting, scanning by naked eye and setting aside a few rolls worth of keepers or coins to be checked for variety - checking those can take as long as sifting through the whole box did initially.

I normally do between 4-8 boxes per week. Depending on time allowed. I buy bank bags off of our counter though, so $1000 each bag of dimes, hence 4 or 8 boxes worth.

I dont really have a "Normal" but this week I have been through 2 boxes of nickles, a box of dimes and about a half of a box of cents, so, about 3.5ish. But I do it at work while on the phone ao I have lots of time.

I've slowed down lately while focusing on my counterfeit collection, so I've been going through about a box of nickels a week, with one box of halves every 2-3 weeks.

I was doing 8 or so boxes of nickels per week when I was doing my nickel survey. Felt pressured to get to my 25,000 roll goal, and I burned myself out doing it. Took some time off, then got back in and I am doing only cents for now. Three to four boxes per week, and no pressure. I need to get back to finish off the nickels, though. Still need to go through 76 boxes!
