Not a whole lotta loot today, but it's still silver! I found a '57-D Roosevelt in a $250 box of dimes. My lucky streak continues!  |

I have been averaging 1 silver dime per an average of $200 in CWR. The rolls come from my local CU and tend to be productive.
This week, found a single 1964 in $200 of CWR.

Searched $600 in cwr Thursday, and scored 5 silver rosies, wish they were all that productive...my average is now 1 per $200, just over $10k searched this year.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...

I am right around 1/250$. Except I am skewed by 46 in one 1000$ bag and skewed by zero in 4 boxes

I believe my CU has another $200 CWR waiting on me Tuesday. I think I am going to focus more on dimes now seeing how they are actually productive and possible to find versus halves or quarters.
Then again, think of how many dimes were made versus quarters and halves and it does make sense you would find them more often.

Wow. best day ever for dimes. 1st box had 3 silver I had ordered 3 boxes of half dollars from the second bank, but they didn't have them. The lead teller was very apologetic and went to the vault to see what he could offer me. He came back with 4 boxes of dimes and $240 in half dollars. Fantastic! Not at all what I expected. When I opened the first box of those 4, I noticed a Mercury reverse showing. YAY! I pulled it out and the other end of that same roll was a Mercury reverse. WHOA. I flipped over all the rolls and found another mercury ender and a silver Rosie ender. At this point I was bouncing up and down like a fat kid who was about to be served a big piece of cake. The very first roll I opened had SIX silvers. I ended up with FORTY THREE silvers from that box. I couldn't believe it.. I tore into the second box and found another roll with 6 silver. That box gave me 12 silver total. This picture shows the totals from 4 of the 5 boxes I had that day. (box 5 had nothing.)  59 silvers total for the day. Not too bad! My previous best box had 26  All of the silver from the 2 good boxes had really dull edges like they hadnt been touched in 50 years. They probably hadn't..  |
