2 boxes from Tuesday.

Skunked.

I have 1 box left from Friday but it looks like that batch will end up being a skunk as well.

What ever happened to Christmas silver from old people cashing in their hoarded silver to pay for gifts fro the grandkids?

Although in the past I usually do pretty good starting February or March.

Nice finds once again arby and skibdib.. Glad to you guys doing well.

Jack hope your next batch turns up some silver for you.. They can't all be winners I guess but you and a handful of others on here have some seriously impressive numbers for finds in a year so I'm sure your luck will continue..

Picking up my boxes either tomorrow or friday so hopefully its another productive hunt and if not well just gotta keep pushing on and hope for the best... Good luck to you all and will report back with my finds if any when my boxes are done.

I'm just getting around to posting last weeks finds. Silver included 6 40% and 1 90%. 1 1964D, 1 1965, 1 1967, 3 1968D, and 1 1969D. As best as I recall I also had 2 proofs, 1 clipped planchet , 1 1982 no FG and 1 1983 no FG. 2016 year to date siver 150.2567 oz. I recently set my silver goal at 150 oz. for the year and was pretty sure when I set it I'd have no problem meeting it, but now I'm going to raise the goal to 155 oz. With only a few weeks to go in this year 155 oz. could prove to be quite a challenge. I'm still hoping to get a monster box sometime during this holiday season, but so far it's been a slow holiday season for silver.

My last four boxes for the week produced 6 pieces of silver, Only 1 skunk out of 4, Box 4 has two coins I marked in Aug and Sept, and I pulled three pieces of silver out of that box to include a 90%er. I ended up with 1-63D Benny, 1-64, 1-65, 2-66 and 1-67. That makes 10 for the week, which makes me happy. Enjoy the pic, I wish you all the best of luck, May you all have a wonderful weekend and KEEP STACKING!

nicely done arby, adding to the pile. For me, last Tuesday 4 boxes gave up 2 x 40% from a single roll.

Today 4 boxes was better, 15 pieces. There were 3 enders but they were all bottom enders so I didnt notice until I picked up the roll to rip it open.

box 1: 1 x 1951s, 4 x 40%
box 2: 5 x 40%
box 3: skunk
box 4: 1 x 1964, 4 x 40%

so 15 pieces out of 4 boxes, I'll def take that. Keeping on stacking, I should have 4 more tomorrow, Id like to think I will find at least a little bit more for the week.

Hi everyone, I have not done any roll hunting since October, but yesterday my favorite teller told me she had a box that someone had ordered but changed their mind. I am glad they did since I got 5 40% & 3 90% including 2 bennies.

I think I owe her some treats!

Arby, Skib and Yakima, nice boxes!

I picked up $60 worth of CWRs tonight and found nada, plus 1 roll was short 1 coin.

Oh well, I'll win some and lose some.

Congratulations on all the nice finds. Sure looks like the silver is flowing good for some. I picked up 4 boxes Wednesday and have two boxes to pick up this afternoon. Once I've searched those two I'll post my weekly results. Things have really been hit and miss around here lately, seems I'll have a decent week with around 1 oz. one week then the next week only get one coin. I've made it all the way to December without a skunk week for 2016 although there have been 4 weeks I didn't search this year. It has been over a year since my last skunk week. Hoping I can go the whole year of 2016 without a skunk week and am looking forward to a better year in 2017.
