Volume. But location can really improve one’s prospects. A fellow CRH enthusiast in Florida used to hit often. Probably an influx of coin collections from passing hobbyists whose spouses didn’t know what they were cashing in. I’ve found a couple 38 D’s over the years but not at a rate like that enthusiast. And I never did volumes like him or Larry.
Yeah, when I coin roll hunted, it absolutely is a numbers game and the more you look at, volume, the more likely you are to find something then searching casually. Like quarter hunting, when I was doing 3-4 boxes a week in 2019, I hit lighting a couple times on fresh BU boxes, that time period I probably searched 50 boxes of quarters though before te world lost their minds, put together a nice set of state quarters and got current with the parks quarters, upgraded a lot of my clad quarters, I found some rim cuds, heck even couple of the enameled canadian quarters, and a lone single silver quarter. No idea what volume Larry is searching daily or weekly or monthly, but I have to say, nickels are probably hands down the most productive for older dates, possible overlooked keys and semi keys, buffalos, occasional v nickels, and yes, silver even, 35% but still silver that nobody really seems to care about to hunt!
