Halves been dismal with all this new competition so I switched to dimes for the most part.
Few nights ago I found my 1,000th silver dime for the year and that is with a 5 mo sabatical I took over the summer to go gold mining.
Monday I did a bag of cents and got 306 Wheaties- so many wheats I had high hopes of an Indian but NO. They were all 40's and 50's with one 1919 so no help for my books. Great thing about this is I can't wait for the other bags on the machine to get topped off to see if it was a 'bunch' of change dumped or just a penny jar.
As for silver totals I have managed to pass 100 z's for the year, probly could have matched last years total if I had stayed home and hunted.
Here's past totals to tell the decline:
2012 = 107 z's (so far)
2011 = 313
2010 = 706
2009 = 948
2008 = 920
2007 = 360 (started in July)
Happy Hunting all, Mark
