Nothing left to do but to hunt. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>So for the ones wondering why I put these nickels in teller trays. The reason is I cant sit up for long periods of time. I have nerve damage in my back and sitting up hours on end doesnt help.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;These trays help me, and without them I probably wouldn&#039;t be hunting anymore. So what I do now is move 5 trays (one box) over to my bed. I got my magnifiers and bucket for discards ready to go. I prop myself up on my bed with pillows and a little help from the wall. I place one tray on my Fred Flintstone belly at a time and im all set![ATTACH=full]1247079[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I do hunt with no gloves. But I am cautious on what I touch. Once I finish one box I immediately get up without touching anything and wash my hands</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Now the tray set up also keeps me focused on going and going. I dont need to crack any rolls or do anything that is a potential distraction. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Like I stated before I have a movie going on thats about 2 hours long and I just get into the zone of hunting until the box is complete.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Below is how I keep my finds. As I find something I put it over on my night stand. [ATTACH=full]1247080[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Starting from the right on this particular box is Pre 60s and next to that is the 2009s onward to the AU/BU then Silver on next to foreign and last is the errors and varieties</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I usually finish 2-3 boxes on Friday and Saturday. And then I post them throughout the weeks. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;After I finish hunting I bring the coins im keeping back to the oak desk where I take my pictures and then edit them for upload to share with you guys.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Some advice.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Always be mindful when hunting. Once again as I stated there is no right or wrong way to hunt.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;BUT!!!.... I will say over and over. CHECK BOTH OBVERSE AND REVERSE!!!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I see way to many youtube videos of people opening rolls and sliding thru them with their finger super fast just looking for Silver,Key Dates,Buffalo,etc. But you just dont know what you&#039;re missing. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I read constantly in those video comments of people stating their box was a bust because no buffalo or silver. Do your darn research and you will find the errors I have found. The hunting will become more enjoyable when you start finding things outside your curriculum.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Remember what I stated in the beginning. This is what works for me. But find what works for you. As long as its fun and you enjoy it that&#039;s what matters the most.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
