thanks jim, i guess you just have to do tons of volume, sift through the skunks and hunt the magic box. i still don't know why so many boxes are skunks and then you run up on one that is full of silver...can't figure it out, looks like it would be all spread around

The reason it comes in one box and not another is when someone deposits
rolls of silver it gets thrown in the hopper to get rolled with the other clad. That roll of
silver will get rerolled with some clad and get re boxed. The silver will stay in either one
box or spread out into several. When you hit a dream box, the next few boxes will have
some more of the same stash in them.

This may not be the reason, but this is what was passed on to me.
