1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

Of course actual. I already found tons of "silver dollars" which are for some interesting reason made of nickel alloy. Hmm...

I was pretty sure, but wasn't that sure if you had any large dollars. I have a silver dollar (Canada), but no US silver dollars and no nickel Canadian dollars.

I don't set goals as its just a hobby & we find what we find. So when you find silver or other vintage coins, just consider yourself lucky. When you set goals it puts pressure on you & everyone else. CRHing should be a relaxing fun hobby & its the thrill of the hunt. Also why make it competitive? Who wants to compete with everyone else? I do the best I can based on how many boxes I can afford, etc..
Anyway, last month I found a total of 40.4 oz of silver. This month I'm off to a good start & found 18.2 oz so far. I'll keep yuall informed as I progress during the month. I'm hoping to match or exceed last months totals. If not, then that's ok too & who cares? I just do the best I can.
Good luck in your quest for silver or whatever it is you're looking for. But more important, have fun & enjoy the hobby\sport of CRHing.
2009 Find Totals (in progress):
1775 King George copper
3 dollars (2 Presential Washington & 2 Sacagawean)
3 Kennedy clad halves
417 Quarters (3 silver dated '34, '48 & '63)
423 Dimes (includes a few Mercs & silver Roseys)
1 Buffalo (no date)
Nickels ?
Cents ?
1 key

Exactly, not everyone has the funds/time to search a lot, and therefore, we couldn't make a competition based on finds. Even an avg/box competition couldn't work, as it is dependent on many factors (luck, company, etc.). It is not like an individual sport (tennis, for example), because in tennis, your result is solely dependent on your skills. Here there are many other factors that are not dependent on your knowledge of banks or volume, but factors that come from another person (is the change jar being filled up with grandma's collection or change from this year).

Well said. It's JUST a hobby! No need to kill your back, or your lungs (dust and allergens), or the car, or the personal relationship with tellers for doing it. If you put too much pressure on the banking system for the silver, the banking system will push back. Remember the A$$hole who ordered 20 boxes from each TD branches which led to cutoff for all the CRHers.

To some its a hobby, to others it isn't. Both are fine with me.

 R.I.P. Rich Hartford, You'll be missed.
I love CRH, it's my hobby, besides collecting coins, I can find real nice collectable coins in circulation too! I think that CRH takes stress away and it's like a scratch off, only thing is, you don't lose $$$

Not everyone can do a lot of volume. I am 13, I have only about a grand as my CRH bankroll. I am dependent on my parents, and I can barely CRH.
