Good job Wicka! I just wanted to say that I think you sound like such a nice young man & are always so respectful & positive in your posts. It is very refreshing to see someone of your age acting like that. Keep on hunting & posting!!

Thank you, I was very surprised when I saw two staring at me, and I got home and said dad I got two silvers so far, he asked how I knew they were silvers, and I told him they were "whitish color" and silver rims, not sandwich. He immediately looked and grabbed one off from the change. I took the coins to look through them and found 13 total

Oh not good, never got the chance to stop at a bank. Not to bad, I went to the Gateway to the West Arch in St. Louis today. I just never had the cash on me when we stopped anywhere.
Good vacation home though! And thank you for asking

Hey BuffaloBoy,
As always thank you for replying 
I do well with pennies, but am going to start to stack some silver, hoping to do a nickel box, and a penny box tomorrow.
Maybe an IHC sitting in the bank waiting for me? Why not!

I don't mean to sound... like a conspiracy theorist, but I think there are a lot of silver quarters still out there in boxes, and CWRs.. (Most) have passed them off as over searched, but no one ever says on here, "5 boxes of quarters, all skunks!" I've seen "5 rolls of quarters skunked" but never much in the way of big volume.. Well, thank you for the comments on the finds
Much Appreciated. (to both Boris, and Mav)

i agree, when I'm at my dump bank, i see a CRH getting 3 boxes of quarters every time. I also see other CRH's and the Post office taking boxes of quarters at my pickup bank

See I think they are out there, but they are so.. written off before trying that they are just sitting there in circulation with (hardly) anyone questioning that they are really gone or not.. I mean, I search 200$ or so worth with my dads laundry stuff, and got 13 once! They've got to be there somewhere, unless the lady said "Oh. Im going to use all these old coins my grandpa left me.. on laundry.."
That's ridiculous, I think they are out there, like halves, skunk streaks are obviously going to happen... but they are out there =)
Happy Hunting!
Wicka.
PS: Yes, I will stick with dimes, and do periodical searches of quarters when feeling ambitious.

Best that could happen? Get 6k silver washingtons ?
Good luck :P
