Hey guys well I have been doing a few boxes here and there. Doing just ok but am buying 100 oz bars and silver rounds. I think my money and time is doing much better then looking for silver right now. If I get a good box I will post it. I had to go to fla 5 times this winter. It would have been to hard to crh. I did a few there it sucked. Good hunting to all I will slip in from time to time. Tim :occasion14::occasion14::occasion14::occasion14::occasion14:

I'm still plugging away with 4 boxes a week. The finds are not overly impressive but seems I get some out of one or two of the boxes so not a total waste. I pick up a few 90% and some 40% every week. The piles are getting a bit bigger of my silver, and there are times I think of buying large quantities like you are. But then what would I do with all that extra time i would have?? that is now consumed with my hunting through the rolls.

I would say however you r able to afford to get the most silver now is what will matter in the long term. When silver is over $100 oz it wont matter too much either way if u got some at fv and buy some now too or buy it all at current low prices. Btw, I was just curious about "am buying 100 oz bars and silver rounds". That doesn't mean 100 oz silver rounds too does it? Ive got some 5oz silver rounds but 100 oz rounds sounds mighty big lol. :)

My silver dime finds cost me on average about $1 ea.
My 40% silver halves cost me about $5 ea, lol.

Hey tim, in your position I think buying silver is better because you can tie up a larger bankroll in silver, and you know...; if silver goes up $1 you make $100 for holding that silver bar!! :occasion14: but the thrill of the hunt is always fun too...

I do both. Boxes have been ok. A lot of skunks with a few great boxes mixed in. I also buy silver every chance I get.

Glad your appeal made it to the Florida supreme court and got you out of jail tim. Like I said, the IRS, and MINT laws are unconstitutional and do not stand a chance in any court.

I'm glad they didn't throw you in prison tim. Can't stack in the pen I bet you'd find a way. Them men in black are after everything if you find a 20 on the ground you better report that on you're taxes the IRS will throw you in prison for tax evasion.
