Don't forget that the MWR is "machine wrapped rolls", what is done by coin processors.

Picked up $200 in MWR of halves + $40 in CWR of halves + $10.50 in loose halves yesterday.

Skunked on the MWR and the CWR, but the loose halves gave up one 40%er: 1967.

Alrighty, this here is my year-end post...

2017 has proven to be a strange and terrible saga in regards to coin roll hunting indeed, at least for me. Both my pick-up and dump bank networks put me through the wringer this year; missing orders, boxes sold out from under me, refusals to order coins, revoked dumping rights from just about every bank I had in my dump strategy, getting other hunters' dumps, and loooooooooong loooong long strings of skunk boxes.

And I do mean LOOOOOOONG skunks streaks. The longest being almost 70 boxes if not more, I gave up counting at 65.

Despite all of that I was able to pull in some silver and add to my stack. I didn't get anywhere near my annual goal of 100 ozt., actually just over half of that. But the stack grew and that is really all that matters.

I started keeping more detailed records. There were 16 weeks where I didn't hunt at all, which is certainly a big reason why I didn't get closer to my goal for the year. I picked up a total of 149 boxes of halves, three boxes of dimes, and one box of nickels. I also searched through $11,847 in CWR of halves and $600 in CWR of dimes.

Total silver found in 2017: 51.18 ozt.

Highlights were few and far between, but here they are:

Good luck and happy hunting in 2018, everyone!

Hope things start to turn around in the new year. Something changed in the supply for sure, nothing to do but power through it all!
