Thought I would start a thread about strategy that might help out some beginners and put into perspective what it takes to be mildly productive in this hobby since I have seen a few that seem to think this should be easy lol. What I am interested in posting are things like amount of circulating cash you keep handy, how many bank accounts you have just for CRH, your weekly turnover etc. I personally have 2 accounts and keep $1000 cash in pocket (or coinage) at all time. My weekly routine is $1000 in dimes picked up Monday split between two banks, dump Tues, CWR hunt at random banks while driving for work or daily errands until Friday when I dump and get my box of halfs and another $500 in dimes. I am averaging about 1-2 oz a week in findings minus any lucky CWR hits. Mostly because my dimes are really hot now. I keep all my regular PU and dumps within 10 miles of the house to cut back on gas. Anyone that wants to add their game plans? Just thought this might be an interesting topic.

As far as cash, I usually don't have that much. Most banks have an ATM by them, so I can always withdraw from an account there.

My bankroll took a big hit when I bought some gold. I'm working with $1800 now, which is about as low as I can go since my biggest pick up is $1700. 2 boxes of dimes, nicks and halves. I also get 2 boxes of dimes at one p u bank and one each, dimes and nicks at another. I have 3 dump banks( different branches), that have coin counters which get everything but the halves which I dump in bags at TD. Sometimes I supplement my boxes w cwr although lately there hasn't been much available. I have 4 bank accounts, 2 specifically for crh.

I pick up X half dollars per weekly order, sometimes other random coin denomination amounts of X at random banks that i stop by on my way to other places. I dump all of said X's into dump banks to credit at ABC bank and keep the silver in my safety deposit box for free.

I'm too busy buying small collections and other bullion right now (non-profit as I don't flip). Otherwise, I'm chasing around town burning up gas for piddly silver finds.
