Ah yes, we all remember pony tail boy, they peppered that roll with a pepper grinder the size of a staircase banister lol, we know it was fake, unfortunately these stupid shows have to make it look just that easy when it is not, most people will try it and see those are not the results at all and give up.

Ironically, If someone decides they want to tell the whole world about our hobby, the best thing they can do is exaggerate the truth. If they expect to get several silvers in every roll, they will likely quit after one box.

I thought it looked a little fishy when he was showing his silver and there was a brown CWR wrapper in his hands. He had obviously busted out a roll of silvers to illustrate one of his best finds. I liked his canvas bag.

Slow and steady wins the race boys. I have been at this since 2007 but there have been guys even on this forum that have been at it since the 70 or 80's. I can't imagine what their pile of silver must look like. Obviously somebody wants the secret out so that no one will see the point in doing it because there would be too little to find. What is better than the government doing it themselves? Getting everybody and their brother to do it for them. Smart!

Really a String & Sons MWR with 12 keepers? Is this show produced by the same people that put cool stuff in the Storage Wars' lockers? But people might go to the bank and ask for 1000 in halves, and then teller will tell them...sorry we dont have any and they will give up. Or they will manage to get an order and think that yay...i am going to make 80 free bucks today and get skunked, and quit right there.

I think most people would give up even if they find silver once they realize they have to dump all of the clad!

If I don't find silver it's not because I'm not looking

These aren't the coins you're looking for.
