I have been here just over four years but hardly ever post due to dislexia and slow typing.
I have most definately found more than my share of silver coin with a handful of dream boxes and very consistant finds the first three years.i have done at least two cwi boxes every week since '07 and have been amazed and confused over the amount of silver left in the system,lately however the finds have slowly dried up to a long string of skunks and today as I picked up my boxes I told my tellers I was thinking of quitting but just cant bring myself to do it.
got home just now and noticed that my boxes have a new date and WOW! inside the first box is ten silvers (2 90%) showing on the ends and three on the ends of the second box!
Its not all gone after all.
Ill report back tomorrow after we crack open both boxes.

EDIT: posting saturday morning.
box 1 had three showing on ends= 43 40's and 6 90's
box 2 had ten silver showing on ends= 49 40's and 7 90's
total of 92 and 13.
Ill take it.

Re: I struck another vein

Good job, would like to read about some of your other big scores. Maybe it is just me, but when my expectations are the lowest, are the times I find really good scores.

What was the date on the box? Were they CWI boxes?

I'm getting new dates, but they are only producing 0-2 40%ers at most so far.

CWI does dated boxes (ie NF String wrappers).. Call around to see who is the carrier in your area. CWI boxes in my area aren't that great believe me.

funny you should ask because these two boxes were the first run of a new set of dates being 4/11/2011.boxes here seem to get new dates about every six weeks.
all my boxes are rolled and delivered and loomis probably the Pittsburg branch.all boxes are CWI rolls in single layer boxes.
WE are still finding AG in WV.
