A lot of Miles for a Little Silver
My son came up with a brilliant(in his mind) road trip. We left Dallas and went to these garden spots in this order;Texarkana,Little Rock,Memphis,Tunica,back to Memphis,Nashville,Louisville,Lexington,Knoxville,C hattanooga,Huntsville,Decatur,Birmingham,Mobile,
Gulfport,Ocean Springs,Baton Rouge,Lafayette(too late to see LJ),Alexandria,Shreveport and home. We bought halves and dumped along the way ending up with 21 40% halves and one crappy ASE from a teller. I don't really mind the small amount of silver,the way I figure it anytime my son wants to spend 5 days with me,I am going. We ate more BBQ than the law allows.
Cheers to all, Go Patriots !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used google maps to find the distance. It is 2,450 mi and 42 hours of driving. However, the silver is only worth about $140. And I also agree GO PATS!

Re: A lot of Miles for a Little Silver
No,No,No,No I am not saying it is my silver by any means. I just don't want to waste gas money if he's already got them all Lol. I figured the casinos down there go through alot of halves at the tables and there would be alot of them floating around the coast. It isn't my silver at all. GO GIANTS!!!

You hit the nail on the head, father son time is #1 Silver found is a bonus.
If it were easy and we scored keepers everytime it would be called Coin Roll Picking not Coin Roll Hunting.

Re: A lot of Miles for a Little Silver
Okay, I admit it. I got everyone's silver. You might as well just give up. I came through Shreveport on Saturday night. The silver is still safe there too. Arkansas is tough to CRH in. Most of those old Wal Mart farts have their money buried under the porches on their mobile homes. Yeras ago when I got started Arkansas was a lot easier than now. Jim

Mobile home Never seen one. See lotsa trailers. Most are pretty far from mobile. 
Had I known you were going through, I could have given you a few "be sure and stop here" places that I have scored a little silver in the past.
