Welcome pamelajoe wish you tons of luck on your search for silver. How long have you been searching? Thirteen pieces of silver in one box is nice. I would take that any day.

HI ARBY 96, I started on 6/1/14. So I am new at this. I have done pennies and nickels for 5 years or so. Retired 3 years ago from plumbing, and retired from ARMY after 20 years in 1992. I go to " (124) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed .COM" to check melt value on all coins. I belong to a coin club and I sometime will trade 1 90% for 2 quarters or 5 dimes.. it is the same silver content. So when our dollar is no good, I will have some SMALL metal to buy bread or beer!!

Joe, I am also retired from the military, Retired from the Air Force May 2001. I was pulling pennies for a while and learned there was still a bunch of silver in circulation, mostly in Halves and nickels. I have had good luck finding silver in halves so far. I use this site for melt value, http://coinapps.com/silver/coin/calculator/ I like it because I just put the number of coins I have and it adds it automatically, plus you can change the value and see what your future investment might be at a higher melt value. Its fun to play with. What coin club do you belong too? Is it a local one or one you use on line? I just noticed it didn't post the website you use. I posted one not sure of the rules we will see what happens. Good luck.

4 boxes from Friday.
2 40%ers and a couple of NIFC.
$5 in silver doesn't offset the $60 plus I was shorted.

Jack, I totally feel you when your shorted. I swear that's how the companies make some of their profit. That's why I do pennies most of the time! DX
Found 2 %40 also and one really messed up 1992 proof. Also shorted a few bucks!

No way in h.e. double ll I would grin and bear it if my box was short 5 rolls. I'd go right to the head teller, and if no satisfaction there, I'd go to the branch manager. anyhoo, here's last week's *ONE* box, proving you don't need mass quantity:

Just finished searching 4 boxes, Box-1, yielded 1-67, Box-2, 1-53D, 1-64, 1-66, and 2-67, Box-3, 3-67 and box-4 2-67 and 1-76S Silver, its in good shape for being in circulation. I also pulled 73 gold plated, 74S Clad Proof and 5-NIFC and a nice 01D. Nice start for the week. I will be picking up 8 more boxes this week and have reached my goal of 10 pieces of silver for the week and everything else is a bonus. Glad to see others scoring on silver also. Hope everyone else has a good week. Remember "LOVE THE HUNT"!    My 3rd one since I have been searching
