Message:: [QUOTE="Truble, post: 2523818, member: 80662"]If all I was doing was driving to banks each and everyday I would honestly say it doesn't make sense at silver's current manipulated low price. However, doing box searches in addition to Bank searches reduces the cost per thousand coins searched. I also as you know use travel for work as opportunities to search with zero fuel costs as well as search new territory( at least FO me) Here's the benefit, silver price will eventual reach its true value either through awakening to holding an asset or end of manipulation. When I started searching in 2011 when silver was in the 40+ range I don't think this would be an aurgument from anyone. A 40% half was worth about $5.60 and a 90% half as worth about $14 a piece. That means a roll of 40 was getting over $100, and 90s close to 300. So like planting a field any cost disadvantage now will be greatly realized over time. Prices and silver/gold ratios will not stayed skewed forever. I think be cautious and dilberate, I printed some cards out that I hand a few tellers that know I'm looking for halfs and they will call me when they get them. This way I can target the bank knowing at least my trip has a higher potential of success than just blind driving. I still blind drive my "route" as I can. Plus like you I like the rush when I tag a roll with that pretty silver grey edge![/QUOTE]
