Congratulations. Depending on the election and if you make your 1000 ounces. Your stash for the year could be worth $50,000.

I don't do even a 8th of TZ's volume but I've found half a dozon 70's and hundreds of proofs, hell I just throw them back now unless they are really pretty.
Guess it all depends on where in the country you are, and luck might have something to do with it.

I have never found a 1970! Mint numbers are really low for that year. I keep all the S halves though.

This week was good for me too, found 14.74 oz. in 30 boxes.

You are a machine. Everyone on this forum fears Loomis and Brinks. I fear you. More power to you.

Tim, I've had some resistance in PA. Went to multiple banks who would not exchange currency without an account. From small CU to large branches.

Good luck with the hunt

Is it true that when TZ finds a silver coin, an angel gets its wings? That is what I heard. Nice finds man, hope you kill it again next week!

Actually Tim will probably help everyone by getting through the topsoil and down to the stored halves. Especially since he's going to dump outside of PA.

Some of my dumps will go to ac and some will go back to the same area.
