All of my half dollar veins are tapped out! I still pick up whatever loose and CWRs that I can find. I am finding 3-4 40%ers a month.

My new goal is 2-3 dime boxes a day, 6 days a week. Hopefully I will find 15-20 silver dimes a week.

So far:
Sunday
Box #1 - 2 FDRs
Box #2 - 3 FDRs
Monday
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 1 FDR
Tuesday
Box #1 4 FDRs and 1x1968 Canadian (50% Ag)
Box #2 1 FDR
Box #3 1 Merc (1944)
Wed
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 skunk
Thurs
Box #1 shunk
Box #2 2 FDRs
Box #3 shunk

Totals: 14 US silver dimes and one 50% Canadian dime

i started going to the bank and just getting 100 dollars of dimes when i can so far i had 3 roosies the first 100 the second i got only 1 and im going to try another 100 i find that maybe my odds are better if i do it that way is this true? so far im up to 9 roosies and 1 92.5 candian. i did niks for a while and got 2 silvers but i think ill stick with dimes since i cant get halfs where im at and quarters arent that great that i tryied anyway. its a nice hobby to do i really enjoy it even though i go through dimes like crazy i do the look at the sides for the sandwich method its the fastest befor i used to look at the dates. i look at the dates when im dont with the silvers to try and find errors.
