May's Totals...
Well this is the second month that I have kept detailed results of my finds. Not as good as last month but still averaged over an ounce a day. As they always say, an ounce of silver a day keeps the dentist away… (
). Although I didn’t find as much I feel that the quality of coins was higher. I obtained an 1892 Columbian Exposition coin and a 1993-S silver proof, probably my best finds of the month. I’ve been working the banks with bags and hopefully they’ll come through. I’m interested to see how this month fares as boxes have been getting worse and my daughter is due sometime towards the beginning of the month. Think I’ll get the ounce a day for this month?? Only time will tell. I’m hungry as ever for silver after wasting my time going through a $500 bag of dimes this weekend…which produced 1 silver dime!! Anyways, here are the finds.
- The Highlights -
41.1631 ozs Silver
Best find – Searching 5 mins through a bag to find 80 40%s and 1 WL
Cheapest / Coolest Score – traded 11 cents for spotting a silver dime and a 1943 steel penny in the tray!
1892 Columbian Exposition Commemorative Half Dollar
1993-S Silver Half Dollar Proof
1995 Grease Filled Die Error (pretty cool looking actually!)
