So far this year it is 139:41

So roughly 3.5:1

If you add my 40 indian heads into these numbers, it goes to roughly 4.5 old pennies per each silver found.

33 wheat to 4 silver = 8.25 to 1

Believe it or not I found all of the silver with a Chinese made "Treasure Cove Model 1023" that I bought for $80. I found $65 in coins with it and then sold it for $80. That financed my Ace. I bought the 1023 on closeout at "Tuesday Morning". It was a fun little machine.

Since Jan. 2010 I have 64 silver coins and 248 wheat pennies. 248 divided by 64 = 3.8 , so its about 4 wheats for every silver.
