It was cold out today and I thought there's no way I'm going out again after yesterday being so bad (today was supposed to be even colder). So what better way to smooth over your MD depression than to swing by the bank and pick up some dimes. I grabbed 4 boxes of dimes and $50 in loose half rolls and then it was, "HOME JEEVES!"

I opened the first box of dimes and the magic started to unroll before my very eyes.

The first roll had 3 silver dimes in it, which up to this point I had only ever gotten 3 silver dimes in an entire box. Right away I thought this is either going to really good, or the next 49 rolls were going to take forever to unwrap.

The second roll had 4 silver dimes in it, and I knew I had a Dream Box in my hands.

Thanks guys!

I wouldn't worry about the videos on youtube... I can't even find my own video searching for "coin roll hunting"... all I get is a million videos on how to do the "coin roll". There's practically no way to even stumble across it... and if a hundred people saw it, it's not going to effect anything. I can't even get my Dad to start coin roll hunting in my own town after buying him a box of halves and dimes to open, and HE got silver too. My Dad is the one that got ME into metal detecting too... he's slightly more obsessed than me, if that's even possible. The people that will do this, already know about it and have been doing it a long time ago. Most hardcore people don't even frequent these forums or post their finds.

I have to agree. People will only find it if they are looking for it. It has the same likely hood of someone starting after stumbling upon this section of TNet now #4 on the board and seeing what everybody posts (& other CRH forums).

Brett that was totally insane I couldn't believe my eyes. Good eye on catching that missing roll. And Malachi is getting very proficient at CRH.


I'm ready to see the other three boxes!!!!!!!!!!

Easy Grasshopper... that's 20 boxes! You must learn to walk before you can run! Try 1 or 2 boxes first and see how that goes :)
