Lost Motivation In CRHing?

Might be your volume was too high. Now that is the easiest way to find more, but you might just be tired of them. try a new coin type and only do 1 box a week. Also its the holiday season so that may be eating at you like it does many. Just take your time with those boxes and see how it goes. search them when you have nothing else to do and just let them take as long as they take. Maybe in the middle you will get a surge of interest again.

I've never had that problem since I started back about '77.

I have quit the hobby though, and dropped my numerous banks and went with credit unions, who don't seem to cooperative with volume hunting.

I do enjoy reading about other's finds.

Wish you luck -

Have John1 send you a few of his rolls. That will get the juices flowing!

I have trolled through dealers' junk boxes with a price per item of up to $15, for the last three decades, looking for World coins and lesser priced ancients.
Better pickings and no obstructive bank policies against against CRH'ers there.

Take a break. If you miss it, you will be back. If not, you will find something else to do.

Oh man, that feeling is the worst...... I go through it too. I finally get the kids to bed, go get all of my stuff set up (light, towel, boxes, magnifying glass, lists, coin books, and little beverage) and by the time I have it all set up I don't feel like looking or I get super tired within the first couple of rolls. When that happens, I just take some time off. I even take some time off from the forums. Then it seems like I'll randomly check the forums a few days/weeks later and get excited about someone else's find and that seems to get me fired up again. Hang in there!

That is how it was for me at the start when I only had 1 penny folder and my 20th Century type folder. I needed everything to fill every hole! So I began sorting everything, then picked the best* coin for the hole filling. As time went on I needed to sort less and it gained speed. Now I can almsot eyeball all the keepers from a bunch of rolls dumped out, but still check all dates anyway.

*Best meaning ones I want to put in the hole based on what I look for out of a coin in my collection. Volume hunting gets you more because you have more access to coins to look at, the only problem is what to do with the higher volume of leftovers. Luckily I have found a use for all coins except large quantities of pennies. dollars spend easy, halves go to the gas station, quarters a bar will buy to help keep change and have them for their pool tables, dimes get mixed in with gas money, nickels get weekly lottery tickets and the Sunday newspaper, and pennies gt the Wednesday newspaper. And for some reason I still got a dump bank after working all that out....

But I have 10 rolls of nickels for 3 weeks now I just haven't looked. need to rest my eyes and do other hobbies every so often or watch some movies and give my hands a rest as well as my eyes.

I am sort of the opposite when sorting. I throw coins into a pile I know I don't need, and anything suspect for any reason gets set aside for resorting later and I whittle it down over time. That way I can get rid of the bulk in the above mentioned ways, and then anything left over that was kept is just the cherry on top I can spend later. That Is how I found 4 rolls worth of 1976-D halves I had forgot why I kept and now wondering should they join their 1976-P brethren to be spent on something for myself.
