3 boxes halves ( 1500.00)
1 ( lonely ) 40%
now here is the fun part....
while at the bank getting cash to pick up some halves....
6 teller tray halves yielded 2 40%
3 bucks yielded more silver than 1500 bucks. |

Stopped by a couple banks on the way home after work. $132 in halves searched. found 2 40% (0.76%)
I have about $133 face in silver thus far. My goal is $1000 face (hopefully by the end of the year) Therefore at this rate I need to search about $90,000-$100,000 in order to find the remaining $867 face value of silver!
I have a few orders for boxes in with differnt banks. |

Just seached $1000 in halves and found zip but I had better luck with the $200 worth of pennies. Need 6000 more coppers and I will have 100,000 saved for a rainy day. |

$5500.00 ( 11 boxes ) ^^^^^^^^^ This is almost the same as what fb101 found in 1 Box ^^^^^^^
25 40% Silver ( 1 was a 1970D )
1 1995 S ( beat up )
1 2005 D NIFC
1 2003 D NIFC
1 1973 MEDIO BALBOA Repvblica de panama
( The Average for my last 24 boxes is less than 3 per $1000.00 Searched....This months combined totals reflect a 14 per $1000.00 Searched....I am way below average. ) |
