Hello!

I just found this forum today and am really enjoying it. As a newbie to coin rolling, I'm bristling with questions and hungry for new information.
I bought my first coins yesterday at TD bank and not knowing what to expect found myself disappointed to only find 1 silver dime (a USA 1964 quarter)out of the 400 quarters I had.
I was not too impressed with this at all, but see here on the forum that actually it wasn't too bad. It's certainly a game of quantity, isn't it?
Can you help me with two questions?

1. How do you transport your coins to a buyer? I can see any 'profit' going to the freight company as coins are heavy.
2. I what quantities do you sell? Fore example, do you wait until you have say 5 rols of silver quarters before you sell? More? Less?

Thanks for the help. As a newbie I've got about a bazillion questions.

Welcome to the forum, and you should be happy with your finds, there are Aton of Americans who don't find silver quarters, so good find. You are right it is about volume.

I cannot answer your question about transporting, as I have never sold my silver ..... Yet!

I have had one silver dime ... A 1966 and one silver quarter 1964 along with a few silver 1968 coins. Those in the last ten years. Don't quit your day job!

Most of the finds with CRH involve varieties and errors. If the odd silver coin turns up, that's a small unexpected bonus.

Almost all of the fun with CRH is in the study of what you find, not selling silver accumulations.

For the carrying of coins walking for some distance, a small but strong back pack would be useful, but best kept aside for most use with other duties.

You will have a very hard time filling a roll of any denomination in silver. Best look for varieties.
