<p>[QUOTE="Robby Bee, post: 2682523, member: 36366"]When presented with such an opportunity, always buy the bag. Usually the short on the count for halves is less than $10, and the silver retrieved is extensive. I have been doing this for around 5 years, and have gone through around 15 bags of halves like the one you described. I was only skunked on silver three times on a bag like the one you described, and those bags were for dump banks. Typically, the amount of silver I received from them is usually at least $100 for each one. </p><p><br /></p><p>On my last road trip, I got one from a bank, which was combined from two or three other branches. It had around $400 in silver melt value, an 1810 large cent, 3 silver dimes and a few dollars in foreign spendable currency. The count on the bag was only short $5, so I consider myself ahead.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
