[QUOTE="Mr. Flute, post: 3877659, member: 33154"]Also, remove war nickels from any calculations of junk silver value. They are not equivalent with 90% silver coins in terms of percentage of 'value' you'll be paid for them. I routinely see them being bought by reliable dealers at 60-70 cents each. Far less than their 'spot' value. This is likely due to the low percentage of silver (35%) and they are a three metal compound (as opposed to a two metal compound like a dime) As to the overall question, I would bet there is equal amount of hours per roll spent metal detecting as CRH-ing with likely less quality results. All dug coins I've seen as culls, but most CRH coins I seen are not. jeffB - really hits the nail the best, I'd get a easy part-time job to raise the funds for bullion reserve purposes and buy bullion/junk at the best prices I could find.
