    My credit score is 730something and the real issue is probably my credit card debt right now as I just purchased an engagement ring. Let's just say I know what I am doing and I have the infrastructure available to me to easily do 20+ boxes a week without a lot more effort. I just don't have the capital.

    AMAZING BOX (well, partial box!) TODAY!!! My wife helped me for the first time and boy, was she good luck!!!!

    In $400 in BWR Halves, we found:

    2X1964
    2X1965
    1X1966
    7X1967
    2X1968
    2X1969

    TOTAL: 16 SILVER HALVES + 7 NIFC + 1999-S

    This is my 3rd box (or partial box) and my first two boxes resulted in 1 Silver Half. Can't wait until the next box comes in from my credit union!

    Good morning everyone! First of all thanks for pointing out that a 2001S is a 90%. I learn someting everyday in this hobby and enjoy it more with each new find. Fridays results are as follows:
    Box 1 1x40%
    Box 2 Bonanza! 13x 40% and 5x90% 1920 and 1937S Walker and 1961 and 1962D Ben.
    Box 3 1x40%
    Box 4 1x40%
    Box 5 SKUNK

    There seems to be alot of debate about how much is too much. We do one box at a time and return the clad and pick up our next box. Typically we do one box a day. On a day off we try to get as many as possible but still one at a time. I pick up at one bank and drop at six different locations of another bank. Twice a month my wife drops off a veggie tray or fruit tray at our pickup bank and it seems they enjoy a surprise. We also drop off salsa and chips at a couple of the drop banks and they always ask for more or when are you coming back in. We have not had any problem dropping because we spread it around. I wanted to start doing this a couple of years ago but could not get it figured out. Finally we got it set and I have been doing halves for 6 months now. I think alot of it is about being courteou and friendly as I learned on this forum. Respect goes along way along with Thank You!

    Here is a picture of Fridays finds COIN HUNT SEPT 7 2012 005.jpg

    Good Luck Everyone! I truly mean this and I hope everyone finds as many as they can handle.

    Whatever helps you sleep at night. I would give her 80% of spot, turn around and sell it to my dealer for 95%. Easy 15% profit for pretty much no work.

    My dealer only pays 70- 75 percent
