jeremymh Pillar of the Community United States 543 Posts	Posted 05/23/2010 6:38 pm Poll Question I have a question for you all, when hunting for silver coins which method is better? Searching customer wrapped rolls or boxes? I have gone though tons of boxes,with dimes I get 3 a box... I never find silver quarters. So I am wondering if searching rolls would be better. Let me know how you all survive. Jeremy Poll Choices Search customer wrapped rolls Serach boxes Give up and buy silver from a dealer Report this Post to the Staff

Namachieli Pillar of the Community United States 2120 Posts	Posted 05/24/2010 11:27 am I would say that its a gamble. Boxes will generally give you X silvers per 10,000 coins and it usually not waver. However, customer wrapped rolls you could go through 10,000 coins and find nothing... and then score 2 rolls solid of silvers. I prefer the consistent, low reward... quite opposite my Roth IRA portfolio. lol but if I do see some old, worn out, faded paper rolls, I will snatch them up in a heart beat.

motos Valued Member United States 310 Posts	Posted 05/24/2010 11:36 am I will say boxes right now because you can always get a box while, around here at least, CWR are almost non existent after I swept the town. Not saying you can't get lucky though : D Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 187702 Posts	Posted 05/24/2010 12:42 pm I said customer wrapped because I have yet to get a box. It is also important to note that I have not roll searched in over ten years.

fistfulladirt Pillar of the Community United States 4333 Posts	Posted 05/24/2010 4:51 pm I've done a lot of roll searching the last 3 years. Customer vs boxes average the same for me (dimes 1 per $150). I have better luck with customer rolled halves (solid silver rolls). Dime searching, boxes produce quality (6 Barbers, tons of mercs). Customer rolls produce lots of old Canadian dimes here (1900 Vicky) course, I'm not too far away from Canada. ffd When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
