Very nice. Out of curiosity, how many $ worth of nickel's did you look through between buffalo"s?

as im only 16 i have hardly any money, but what i do, i use to CRH. I'm only able to hunt 5-10 rolls of nickels at a time. i found my first buff in 2011 in my first nickel CRH ever (one lone roll, lol) and now i've hunted 235 rolls total. so nearly $500 worth! I know its a horrible Buff to Roll ratio but my half dollar ratio is much better. 67 silvers out of 347 half dollars searched! (only 123.50 of halves searched!)

Thanks. I'll try to find more halves, but I'm not holding my breath. Halves are a scarce commodity in Tallahassee, let alone silver halves.
