Hey everyone, well, this week was really good to me, where do I start. Ok, so I did 6 boxes and 1 bag this week ( my usual) my bag had nothing but, all 6 boxes produced this week! I can't remember that happening in a long time, if ever, so I was very pleased with my results! 2 boxes really shined out of this week, 1 had 21 40's and another had 15 40's and 2 90's, and those were both from the same bank, first pick up of the week!:whip2: I have a branch that has been letting me exchange some dumps in bags for cash ( totally awesome), I had one of my cool tellers hand me 9 40's this week when I went in to pick up my order, and I took a load of scrap in today and got paid for picking up stuff on the side of the road for FREE again! Those bags of cans you see in the back of my truck were all sitting in front of someones house, they went through all the trouble of crushing them and then just threw them out! Also found my first large Penny ( I have found them a bunch in magicians coins, but never on it's own), and 3 more 1987's in my last box. So I'm ending this week very happy!:hello2: I may be forgetting something but I think that is the jist of this week without writing a book for you to read lol. So I hope everyone else ends their week good this week too!:happy1::blob6::blob7::blob10::blob9: HH, Maverick. Oh, the totals lol, 55 40%'s and 5 90%'s!

Awesome scores, Mav! Love that fist full of silver! Sounds like some decent boxes are coming back into the wild again. I love this time of year - always get some goodies. I need to do some scrapping!

Hey BB, yup, this week the boxes were pretty good, my last 2 today did only have 1 each in them and 1 of them was an ender, getting way more of these boxes with an ender and it being the only silver in for some reason, those are weird odds. You should scrap, it is free money! I just picked this stuff up as I saw it for a month or so and it is extra money! HH, Maverick.

Wow maverick!! I am totally jealous, especially this week!!

I have not found ANY silver yet this week!! 24 boxes and nada... something is happening in my area, and it sucks!!

I still have 8-10 boxes left to search this week, but my hopes and dreams are fading quick!!! I dont know how that one guy(iamrussel?) goes through skunk streaks like this... its torture, and draining on me and my gas tank.

Hey info, I have had weeks like that, you're just working on a bad pallet ( dump pallet), push through it, and it will come! Good luck on the 8-10 ya got still comin! HH, Maverick.

Mav... totally jealous. I ended up with 8 boxes yesterday, 14 today... 3 clad proofs from all of those. Thats it! Like you said, keep pushing through the bad pallets (all boxes came from 2 pallets). Eventually, the skunks will end, but 23 boxes into 2014 and not 1 silver half yet! Nottttt a good start!

Id sure say 3 rolls of silver is a great week of hunting! :thumbsup:

I wasn't able to find any silver halves this week myself but I did find my first magicians half in quite a while. I know its a magicians half from the hollow sound it makes and I can tell its lighter too but I can't get it open. Maybe I could try the glass jar trick. I'd rather be finding silver too but there's always next week.

H$H!

I have 1 that i could never get open either, all the rest I just kinda lightly tossed them at my tile floor in the kitchen, make it land on its side, they would loosen up enough that I could get my nail in there and pop it open. HH, Maverick.
