Wow, and I thought *I* was taxing my dump bank's patience with my dumps of approx 1-2 boxes per week.....

My dimes Nick, my dimes! (in a whining voice)

HAHA, Awesome job!! Very inspiring.

nice job Nick - esp the dimes. That's an average of 3.6 a box. I searched my first box over the weekend and scored 2 silver. I just bought my second box today and I'm just getting started on it. If I could average about 3.6 a box - I'd be a HH. I also ordered my first half box today from a new bank I hope to buying from on a regular basis.

But I'm small time compared to you and Heed but I sure like reading about all your big searches and your finds - gives me more motivation.

Keep on searchin'!

Oh and I forgot to count the 16 merc's you scored so it's actually an average of 3.82 silver per box - sweet!

Heroic effort! Do you dump daily or is your bank roll large enough to dump less often? I have been dumping daily to keep things tight. Your dime haul is amazing.

Good Job Nick. Dimes are your bread and butter that's for sure. Good Luck. Dennis.

Very nice month!

Just curious, what type of arrangements do you have to get rid of $36,000 dollars in coins on a daily/weekly/monthly basis.

Most banks I use have a limit on the amount you can dump in one day, usually $100.00 dollars before they start to charge. BoA uses bags
and really does not care how much you dump, they just take two days before the money is in your account.

I would really love to hear about your process, I am quite intrigued.

CardsNcoins,
Great month for you. Lots of work going through all those rolls, but that's the fun of it
and you added a lot to your pile.
Congratulations and keep at it...."It's out there".
