As an effort to get out of a particularly nasty slump I have set an easy goal for myself which I plan to carry for the year. I have not the time or energy right now for high volume, not that I ever really did. I am aiming to find one silver coin per week. Just by having this goal it gets me searching and finding and one is probably a low number. I started in March and picked up a free 2014 planner from an unnamed vendor to keep myself accountable. I am searching between $50-$100 of dimes and $20 of nickels each day unless I can get half dollars in any sort of abundance. Work gets me to the banks almost daily so this isn't difficult.
So far in March:
1st full week: 1962 dime. Teller tray from a teller which I buy all of her Canadian coin once a month. She almost always has American silver mixed in with the Canadian. Ironically no Canadian silver yet.
2nd week: 1966 half and a 1964 quarter. Half from teller tray and the quarter from laundry money.
3rd week: 2 1963 red seal $5 US Notes, 2 silver dimes 59 and 62. The red seals caused a flury of activity when the teller pulled them out of her drawer. She did not realize what she ha and the other tellers noticed right quick.
This week so far: 1964 half and 1965 half. One from the same bank as the other also in a teller tray. I heard they had a bunch of rolled halves too so I bought some today and pulled the 1964. The rest will be mine tomorrow. Silver therapy. Pics! Sent from my iPhone using TreasureNet
