<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 271515, member: 8247&quot;]I add less than $100 face to my collection per week.&nbsp; But it&#039;s not just about the silver.&nbsp; I&#039;m working on my proof set solely based on finds from circulation.&nbsp; For a 1971S through present, I&#039;m only missing about 9 of the copper clads.&nbsp; I have both silver bicentennials (proof and uncirculated).&nbsp; I only have the 2000S 90%Ag, but I&#039;m hopeful of eventually finding the rest.&nbsp; I do have a 1960 Franklin Proof, a couple 1964 proofs, and 2 of the SMS kennedies (don&#039;t remember which two off hand).&nbsp; Who knows, I may still complete a 1964 to present proof set.&nbsp; Oh, and I&#039;m still looking for the 1970D and 2007P.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I also search other things like nickels, pennies, dimes, and the occasional box of quarters (I search the quarters because the box is the right size for storing certain things).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m averaging about 1 wartime/buffalo per box (some boxes make up for the string of duds).&nbsp; I&#039;m averaging about 40-50 pre-1960 jefferson nickels.&nbsp; I&#039;m still looking for the 1950D and am hopeful that I may find it in the next decade.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dimes and quarters are horrible for finding silver, but I save 1969 and 1971 philly dimes as it took me forever to fill those two spots in the coin book.&nbsp; I did have the luxury of finding my very first mercury dime from circulation this morning.&nbsp; I do have better luck finding silver roosevelts by checking the reject bin of the coinstar everytime I goto the grocery store.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
