Wow!! Didn't skunk! Found 1 more 40%er. Thats now 2 I have found in only 10 boxes. I had no idea there was this much silver in circulation! :tongue3:

Anyway, I am done with halves - as far as boxes go anyway. I will still pick up every handrolled or loose half I come across though, although there just aren't many around here. I have hit every bank in 3 cities on more than one occasion and have come up with less than $100 total, and scored 4 40%ers if my memory is correct. I got into CRH mainly just to add to my coin collection. While as a collector, I would rather search dimes, nickels, and pennies, I was hoping that a few boxes of halves per week would net me enough 40%ers (as well as the occasional 90%er for the collection) to parlay into some key date coins or something like that. So much for that idea. Oh well, I wouldn't have known had I not tried. Maybe I'll give it another shot in a few months and see if things have changed. Hope everyone out there is having much better success than I!

Hey Largemouth, I have had great success hitting the backroads of Ark. As long as I stayed out of Wal Mart bank country(Northwest) I did well. There are a bunch of smaller mom and pop banks hidden away just ready to be relieved of their booty. Obediah and I could retire if we prowled around the back country. There are over 66,000 banks in Arkansas, don't give up yet. Good luck with the spinner baits, Jim
 

Oh, I'm not giving up by any means. I just don't see any reason to continue ordering boxes regularly.

And, for the record, I am much more of a buzzbait guy! ;D
