did my 4 boxes today with no skunks, which helped that statistic. .537% skunk rate for the year.

box 1: 1 x 40%
box 2: 1 x 1964
box 3: 5 x 40%
box 4: 5 x 40%

the ender on box 4 had 2 in it, that was cool. overall, raised my stats in silvers per box and non-skunk boxes. 378 boxes of halves on the year today.

Nice Score Skibdib, Thanks for the pics, love seeing that beautiful silver! You have searched 5 more boxes than I have this year. Good Job! That is 189,000 dollars face value searched and over 389,000 coins. Its sounds crazy when one uses these numbers. Just working with $2,000 someone can search that much money in a year and more. I have talked to people and they can't even imagine what I am talking about. I wish you all continue having awesome luck. Has anyone here hit the 1,000,000 face value searched yet. I think I may break it next year if I keep up with the numbers I search a week.

Nice 1920 Walker, CrazyCat! Congrats!
And great silver hauls, arby96 & skibdib!

The great thing about this hobby is it's free... I don't exactly know how much I've gone through these 6 months... I need to put everything in my spreadsheet...

Nice finds on the silver everyone
especially the 1920 Walker.
I was very fortunate to get 10 more good boxes.
one of them was a skunk and there was 12 enders total.
best box had 38,40% & 2,90%
best roll had 5,40%
total is
123,40%
10,90%
I have 8 more boxes to pick up yet this week
hopefully some of them will be from the same lot.

2 boxes from Tuesday

1 of the boxes was already opened when I was at the bank. I always worry when I get an open box that someone peeked inside looking for enders and switched them out or took the ender roll out. Well when I looked in the box to make sure all of the rolls were in the box before I left the bank I was happy to see an ender.

Box 1 that was opened: 10 1964's, 3 40%ers, and 2 Franklins.

Box 2 had 2 1964's, 2 40%ers, and a car wash token.

They were all in there.

I had gotten a box one time that had $450 in it as the bank had opened it to give some rolls to someone else and when they were counting out the rolls at the bank I spotted an ender which I guess the first teller that opened the box previously had missed (if they even knew anything about silver)

Nice haul guys!
Makes me wish I had the money to search halves in large volumes like you guys do.
For now, did another $100 and got skunked. My beginner's luck is running out

It's always more gooder to get more 90% than 40%

Outstanding Trapper what a sweet haul, Jack another awesome score. Well my first four boxes for September and the last four for the week were skunks, which makes me sad, but I did score 41 2016 19D and 21P's. 1-01 Clad Proof and 2010 Clad proof. Must not forget the GEM 87D, Though I would prefer silver at least I finely scored my first 2016 for the year. Wishing you all the best of luck, hope you all have a great Holiday and a fun filled weekend.
