silver

I have a 2001 Silver Canada $5 Colored Maple, without the color. The coin appears mint / untampered, and in all other regards matches my other colored maples. Is it possible for the color to have been removed? Will the value be less? Thanks in advance for any help.

Greetings, fellow swingers. First post. I've only had my first detector for about a month now, but I also would like to think of myself as a good researcher. I have something of a technical background and I did/read tons of manufacturer, price, feature, and customer review comparisons before...

Third time out with Etrac metal detector= Another First: 1935 Walking Liberty silver half dollar! 1918 and 1941 wheat pennies as well. Uncleaned. Yesterday found a Barber quarter:also a first of that type of coin. The half was first half of any type.

Finally got my first silver half proof yesterday! A 1976S found in a box from a bank off the beaten path. Has certainly been one interesting week for CRH for me. I wonder what tomorrow will bring!

Afternoon Fellow Hunters, I went to one of my best producing banks today to pick a box of dimes they were saving for me. As I was there being helped by the vault teller, two different people were cleaning out their safe deposit boxes for good. I asked the teller what was going on and she said...

Jackpot!!! V: Over One Solid Half Dollar Roll!: Yesterday's Mini Jackpot Score! Had an hour to walk around on my lunch break yesterday, and decided to stop into some banks I haven't been to before. I almost didn't go into the bank that had all these CWRs, but I am very glad I took the extra...

REJECT TRAY FIND: Franklin Mint .925 Silver mini Abe Linconol Coin! I found it on the floor by the reject tray yesterday evening. It is much smaller than a dime, and a tad bit thicker as well. The edge has that special silvery luster, but google gave me nothing. Upon more searching, I found...

"stoner" kid buys chips & soda with 13, 1964 quarters and now they're mine My girlfriend has been working PT at a big name convenience store and last night a young kid came in that looked pretty baked and put a Mountain Dew Red on the counter with some Takis chip type snacks. He then pulled out...

Up for sale is a slightly used Whites Spectra V3 Metal Detector... It was built in 2009... I am selling this machine for a friend that can no longer use it... He is telling me that it has very little hours on it... May be less than 60...It will come with the original box, Double D Coil...

If you want a real piece of honest advice from a veteran of collecting, trading, selling and buying in large quantity ; I recommend that you only buy pure silver or gold (99.9% or 99.99% / .999 fine or .9999 fine), because come sell time, you're going to face mass scrutiny and assaying...

Met up with max today for a few hours to see what we could pull off the beach. I was able to get a silver earing, a quarter, 2 dimes, 3 pennies, a few pulltabs and a stainless steel pipe. Hopefully max had better luck on his return trip back down the other direction! Had a package waiting...

Today I met up with a couple friends. Been wanting to hit another site that was on my bucket list... Today it paid off bigtime... Walked straight down to the beach and bang... First item of the day was a Captain Midnight Badge.... Dates from 1941, and it's the first issue of the badge... I love...

I picked up a box of halves on my lunch break and thought for sure it would be a skunk. I have not been having a ton of luck with halves lately. I also have not gotten a 64 Kennedy in a long time. Was thinking today about how I never get the 90% JFKs. Well, with about 3 rolls to go I spotted...

hammered coins from 12th century (II. Béla) and other finds !!

My vacation is over fellas, I'm leaving Skunksville Jackpotropolis, here I come! I've missed you! Had a slow and rather unlucky start to 2013; many many skunk CWRs and half boxes, box order delays (holidays) and ordering troubles, rude bank tellers, a lady trying to dump a large handfull of...

Teller: "Those aren't your coins in the reject tray...You come in with half dollars." Eminem, I'll throw you a couple 90%ers to take care of this rude teller for me.... In the past, a friendly teller at my dump bank; today she gave me a rough time when I asked to take the reject coins out of...

Last two weekend trips of the year. Looking forward to next year.

:hello2:This is the first silver I've found in quiet a long time, but I knew if there ever was a place that would give up some silver coins it would be out in that cotton field and not very far from that old gravel road either. I've found several wheat pennies there on recent hunts so I figured...

I looked through almost every thread that had the hit "Digital Scale" to see what I could find and noticed that it really varies from person to person. Quite a few people mentioned the scales from Harbor Freight. I would prefer it to be a pocket scale that I could take with me, but I am open to...

Found this platter in my back yard as a kid and stored it away as my treasure. I recently rediscovered my find. I have looked over the entire thing and can not find any makers mark or silver mark, only the numbers on the back (1830 16). Under some of the deeper scratches, it still appears to be...

Hi all It's been a long time since I have posted some finds so here are some from today... BTW if anybody knows some of the buttons please post info :) I will be researching them this week.. Sorry if the pics are to big or out of order..

Hello friends! Well two days ago, my dad told me about dowsing. I had never really heard about it, just about people finding water with sticks. So I started looking into it. I seen people dowsing photos of areas, and it really intrigued me. I believed! Which I believe is very important. So...

I am not anti-gun or anything, but I don't think we need to go around showing off and talking about our guns here without there being a good link to CRHing. I've seen a few articles today, and not quite sure why the guns are trending today... I get the connection between guns and silver, trust...

This might get some bad replies but THE GOVERNMENT CAN TAKE YOUR GOLD AND SILVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:help::help::help: I was wondering about it so I did some research. It seems like they can according to all the things I read. So is it worth it to CRH and buy silver?

Can anyone tell me if this Morgan dollar is fake? It's in my Grandpa's collection. It looks like it's fake to me, but I am not sure. The overall look of it seems off. Kinda like it's plated or something. The weight is just about spot on to a confirmed real one. I particularly think it looks fake...

I have really been very tempted to trade in some of my coin roll hunting finds for gold lately, and today I did just that. I traded 7 rolls of 40%ers ($70 face), and 4 rolls of 90% FDR dimes ($20 face) for this beauty: And then I bought this one with some savings: Before you tear me a new...

I got a haircut today: I found this 1898 Barber half while searching through the second to last roll of $250 in string and sons (yellow roll). It was the sole coin found from the batch, and was actually an ender on the bottom side of a roll I had already unraveled :BangHead:(I would have taken...

No cups actually...but since you clicked... Had a really great box today. The banks only had one box for me. This box had the same 4 digit code as my last 6 boxes from this bank from last week, which only gave up 4 40%ers and 1 90% ben (every other box was a skunk). I had no expectation of...

Hi guy! Here are my weekly totals: This came early in the week, and was very pleasant to see. Came from a box. Went to a new territory and found some CWRs. Had only $20 in half dollar CWRs, but here is the first roll The second one was also quite awesome! And the box to close out the end...

Had a pretty good weekend. Went to a location I have hunted numerous times and had no results. I knew there had to be something there so I thought I would give it one more shot. After a few junk targets I hit a strong 12/44. I thought to myself "Finally, a dime!" Out popped my first Barber...

Had a pretty good week this week: 8 boxes of halves gave me 6 90%ers (4 walking!, 1 beat up Ben, and a 1964JFK) and 9 40%ers. 2 boxes of dimes gave me an 1899 Hong Kong dime (80%), a rosie, and found two rosies and a Canada 1940 silver dime(80%) in a reject tray/tube). 3.838oz this week or a...

It's Ag October: Tonight is Night of the Walking Liberty + Have you walked the plank? I walked the plank for the first time today! I call finding a walking liberty ender "walking the plank" (yes I just made that up, maybe you'll try it on for a fit?). Searched 3 boxes today from two...

Yesterday was a wake-up call for this novice half-box searcher, and should serve as a warning to not always depend on edge checking for silver (as many have stated on here before). I was doing my first box of the day yesterday, and I found one measly 40%er that was very light pinkish and worn...

There are people who are on here from way back when. I would like to know what the biggest known silver career accumulation is. Are there people out there who have literally retired off of CRHing? Millionaires? Hundred-thousands? I am not talking about silver's future, we all know its going to...

Found this piece of silver this morning and was looking for confirmation from the experts. I'm thinking it's a cob, but what do you think. Dimensions are: 0.52" x 0.44" at the widest points. Weighs 1.87g. Any thoughts on denomination and date range would be appreciated. Thanks for your...
