Ribognome7, I believe I average between 10-20 per $500, sometimes higher sometimes lower. But my totals are abnormal. I think 1-2 is the norm.
-----------------------------
I usually dont post that consistently even though I'm still finding silvers. But I happened to for the past week or two. I posted my findings up pretty consistently for about a week or two at another forum, so I have a record of everything I searched in that time frame. Each bag is $500.
Bag 1
40 40%
7 90% '64s
2 Franklins
1 Walker
1 1973 Panama half dollar (no silver :( )
1 1981 proof
1 1980 proof
Bag 2
49 40%
20 90% '64s
----------------------------------
#1
10 40%
1 90%
1 Franklin
#2
9 40%
2 90%
1984 Proof
#3
33 40%
31 90%
1 Walker
3 Franklins
1994 Proof
1973 Proof
2000 Proof
2008 Proof
2 2008 NIFC
2006 NIFC
---------------------------------
4 bags produced
23 40%
3 90%
1 Franklin
Bunch of NIFCs
---------------------------------
bag 1
6 40%
2 90%
bag 2

1 Franklin
1987-D
1970-D Silver
1 worthless mexican peso

| 10 posts above this one, and not a single total since my last post. Guys, please help and add your finds to a running total at the end of your post, it does get confusing and hard to total when nobody totals after 10 posts. That, and I now have no idea if/how to include buyingsilver's post above in May totals. Please help out and clarify people! Thanks! |

| you can include it if you want. Doesn't matter that much to me. I can give you a grand total of the amount found for May, but that wont include the amount searched. So that's why I did it this way. |

$1000 halves.
Zero silver.
So far this year, considering --sealed boxes only-- I've gone through $17500 in halves and
average 1.857 silver halves per box. I avg better from just asking for what's in the tray. Anyone else have their avgs for boxes?
So far this year, I've looked through 31 - $500 sealed boxes of halves ($15500). I've found a total of 152 silvers (40% and 90%) in the sealed boxes. My ratio is 4.9, a little less than 5 silvers per box.
CWRs - 88 silvers in $290 of halves. That would be a rate a little over 150 silvers/$500. Wouldn't it be great to get 150  silvers in every box you open!! |

Nice set of bags bro. I love that about the bags. The silver is practically glowing in the bag. I call those bags "silver ore" and I'm the "miner" :) |
