Holiday Travel and CRH.. Birmingham and Nashville...Uhhgg

[Catcake]

Looks like my family holiday plans are finalizing. Christmas in Nashville at my grandfathers house followed by New Years in Birmingham. I'm not too fond of Nashville (Brentwood actually), Birmingham (Homewood) or my country kin-folk but I've never CRH'ed in another state. Super excited to try. I'm sure all I'll hear about is Texas A&M and the presidential election. Hahaha. Therefore I need to my escape... CRH to the rescue!

Any folks from around Birmingham or Nashville that can recommend a good bank or 10 to visit while I'm in town? In return I can provide my experiences of the best banks to hit up in Austin, Texas. Reagardless, I'll hope to plan ahead and churn 20 to 30 boxes in each town.

Thanks!

Just hit all you possibly can, never know what may turn up. Good luck.

If you're hunting halves, Alabama is dead and dry. Nashville, I'm unsure of, but the parts of Tennessee I've hit up, suck just as bad.

Good luck to you, though.

That's what I've been hearing from other boards. However, if I'm not mistaken i've heard previous chatter about Brentwood and the Birmingham area as being very good hunting grounds. Austin, TX is ok so far... I've found 10 silvers including a 1970 D, a 1995 S silver, and two 1964s. I also found two gold plated halfs, a dime planchet, a gold plated dime, and two war nickels. Looking forward to hunting some new ground! Might even detour along the way!

Well, like I said, I hope you will find at least something, but I am in AL and hunt fairly often and I am lucky if I find a 40%er. I haven't found a 90%er YET. I hunt pennies and nickels, and dimes if my eyes are feeling okay that day.

I'm interested to see how you do, I go through Alabama a lot as well as Mississippi and Louisiana.
