    Since your so young just keep at it and do what you can. I wish someone told me about this years ago now Im just trying to search as much as I can to make up for lost time.

    It's kinda blurry but some of you might appreciate this:

    It's probably at least a month or two of wrappers, which I usually crush up, throw in the bag, and then sit on the bag occasionally to compact it. Also in the background you can see a weeks work of boxes stripped and flattened. The nickel box is my 1940s and 1950's Jefferson common dates box, and just to the right of that is my bin for Ikes.

    We never really see pics of people's CRH setups or box/wrapper hauls... would be interesting to see. I guess I could post a pic of my main sorting area at some point lol

    If you don't have the money, thats one thing, you obviously can't search more than you have. If you have the money, but its in a bank account, thats another thing and you might want to use it. If its in some account in a CD or stocks or something either making good interest or you can't access it for a certain period of time, then you're stuck. But, if its just in a bank account earning a tenth of a percent interest, why not use it to search? There is ZERO risk, the only thing that could happen is you find silver and make money. Using that money to search would be in itself a form of earning interest.

    1 Box of Dimes: 1943 S Merc x2, 1964 D Roosie.
    I should do dimes more often, they're often decent for me. But they're kind of a pain, they're so small. A lousy pic (I need a new cell phone):

    I had a skunk box of dimes just yesterday. It was my first box of dimes I'd done since February or March. I hope skunk boxes aren't the new trend. I used to be able to get at least one silver roosie per box pretty reliably.

    Oddly enough, I did a box of quarters same day as the dimes and turned up a '59 Washington.

    Picked up a box of dimes at the bank across the road from my work - snuck a peek before I headed back inside and spotted a '63 roosie ender! It's nice to know I've got something waiting for me after work!

    Got a box of pennies at lunch today. Solid 2011. Since they gave me an old new box, why couldn't it have been a solid box of 2009s!
