Best coins to search in the MA area?

[mws_1984]

I've seen several people post about different areas being rich in silver, but all depending on what coins your searching. What is best to hunt in the MA area? Not asking specific locations just statewise, so nobody needs to think I'm trying to go steal anything from others. I could see someone say they don't want to share there strategy so had to add this.

Start with halves, if you go a few boxes and they're all skunk try dimes and than back to halves. I've heard in CT halves hit well.

Not that great... I'm in CT and most of my good boxes come from other states.

I grew up in MA and am looking forward to going back there soon. I know a lot of small town banks that are around my old neighborhood that would be a great place to ask for halves. I havent searched in MA yet, but try some small banks for halves and dimes and see what you get. Good luck

Right now only have a bankroll of $250 so doing my first dime box today. Gonna eventually work my way towards having enough to buy half boxes. But I'm sure I can get loose rolls I'd hope.

Halves and dimes.

I usually do ok with halves when I go on road trips in Ma.

I would take your bankroll - whatever it is - and buy halves... if you don't have enough for a box, buy CWRs and sell the silver you find til you can get 1, then 2, then 3+ boxes/week. Halves are where the money is. Unless you can buy dimes like Cardsncoins does - like 10-20 boxes at a time (and if you are as good as him at dumping them!), I would go for halves... they are fast to look thru and have the highest $ yield.

Just my two halves worth!

It's very limited so far, but my experience with CWRs in MA has been entirely other peoples' dumps. Tons of them. Like all the halves at five different banks. I probably could have brought home $2K+ in searched string rolls.
