Any ideas on how a 11 year old gets $500 for a box of halves? Or any ways I can earn money?

Mow lawns and (if in the right part of the country) shovel snow. If that doesn't work ask you parents what you can do around the house to earn some extra money. Many states also pay you for recycling bottles and cans so you can give that a try!

Good luck!

Forget this stuff, study in school and go to a good college. Do something with your life kid. You are the future of this country, not a damm coin unwrapper...

Dude, im 15 and have saved silver since i was 10, and i am 15, I have $8,000 in various crh finds, and i have paid well below spot for it. This kid is learning to invest just like i have and i admire him for it, and for me, my crh finds are my survival money as soon as i leave collage. So Josephiking, I admire you buddy, keep on going!

I am a 15 year old and have earned enough money to buy a $600 metal detector to find "treasure" and have an extra $300 to crh.
Keep it up!

Borrow from your parents if you can. that's what I do. Make sure they get their money back though and pay for what you take out. My silver is for retirement yo

Hopefully it'll go silver.

There once was a saying that I used to say
Back in the day when I met Dre
I used to sit and goof on the phone with my friend proof
That if I went gold, I'd go right through the roof
He said what If I went platinum, I'd just laugh at him
That's not happening, that I can't fathom
Eighty something million records worldwide later,
I'm living in a house full of assets

ive been doing good just stopping at banks and asking for what half's they have on hand. 2 days ive been out and about doing errands & found 2 40% so far... 1 yesterday and 1 today. it takes time.

maybe when your out outta town with your parents, have them stop at a bank or 3 for you and let ya go in and ask to trade cash money for half pieces

dawg I need to come out with a new solo album soon

I second that... relapse and recovery both leave alot of room for improvement. need some more slim shady attitude.

Dawg Relapse has the best beats and a great ryme scheme. Recovery had some good topics to rap about. he needs to combine them yo

First of all, try to ignore the snooty comments like this from the dirt fishers - most of them are just bitter because we find more silver in 1 afternoon than they do in 5 years. Also, you can CRH while you go to school - you don't have to pick one or the other. If you are successful at it, you may make more money searching for silver than working a part time job & may not have to work while in school.

And to answer your question, there are a few options... Borrow the money from your parents if they will let you. You will double your money in no time if you are in a good area. Also, try customer rolls of halves if you can't buy a box. You can get lucky with some pretty good collection dumps. Sell some finds to build your bankroll. Once you get some cash, you can search more = more silver.
