22 boxes to dump for about 11$ in silver... next time just head down to the coin shop... the time you spend on dumping 22 boxes, will run you dry.. lol
 

That's rough. My boxes have not been producing much either
 

This is when you got to think about all those great boxes and scores you were posting not to long ago. The ups and downs of the silver tide.
 

I have done 25 boxes since Jan 1, with a yield of 1 40%er.
Yikes, I don't remember it ever being this bad.
I am down to 1 box a week. That is my pain threshold.
I had a goal of 10 rolls of 40's for 2016.
My new goal is to search 1 box a week.
 

Maybe we should talk some more about CRH videos...

Ha ha ha!!!

I found 2 solid shotgun rolls a couple of weeks ago, posted about and got a total of 1 reply, in part I think because I never post pictures. I started CRH'ing a couple of years ago because of people posting pictures and videos of silver stacks on this site. I've pulled 1,000's of silver coins, old commemoratives, IHP's, proofs, buffalo's, and numerous solid rolls all because of pictures. I think it's funny that putting a picture of a bunch of Kennedy's makes a story more of less interesting to a group of knowledgeable hunters. It does attract newbies though.

sorry about the crappy boxes. I'm in about the same spot. All denominations are really poor for me. Good luck and happy hunting.
 

Last twenty boxes produced this

Everyone reaches there breaking point when they either stop or lower the amount searched. I think you are reaching that point with all the threads you have started showing how disappointed you are.
 

And to think, since I don't check halves, only cents & dimes, today one of my sweet young tellers calls me over to her window and says "I have something for you, I think you might like it. It's an old coin". She hands over to me a 1952 Ben, for face value. No SKUNK half boxes for me. Just love when they do that, I slipped her a couple of bucks anyway.
 

I just went through a boat load of pennies (cents, sorry) and got ZIP. I gave up on silver awhile back. The three banks I was using refuse to order it anymore and won't sell me boxes of dimes.

Timing is everything. I like to reply to posts, but I'm clearing land, which leaves very little time for viewing. Glad you found something. I had a net of 4 40%ers out of my last 12 boxes. OUCH...Brad
 

That's the way this hobby is...you either find none, a few, or a lot. Good luck to you!!
 

Boxes are horrible here too. I stopped ordering for a while. It got too disappointing. People have been ordering and dumping heavy in my area. Its like there's all of a sudden a huge upswing in the number of people CRHing or people are ramping up their orders. Its really competitive to find even a few loose halves and the dumps get shuffled from one bank to the next by eager hunters. Good thing its good metal detecting weather. Best of luck to all and I hope it gets better for you.

Loose lips sinks ships. Exactly why I'm against videos about crh online. But anyone who likes them Will insist it's not affecting the hobby

You can be against it all you want, but your never going to be able to stop it or do anything about it. Everything you could ever want to know about CRH can be found here, other websites, on youtube, and the many books written on the subject.

I would think the casual hunter, who wants to try something new, would get discouraged fairly quickly. Someone watches a Utube vid where someone is getting 20 or more good coins is great fun, but how often does that really happen?
The newb expects that every time. I would imagine after the 3rd or 4th time of not getting anywhere near that result, he is done with it.
Perhaps there are more hunters today. But there are also more who put nice coin back in circulation.
There are just more of everybody nowadays, and that trend is not going to reverse itself in the forseeable future.

Once again. Its the chicken and the egg argument. Unless someone is stumbling around online looking for CRH info its not going to pop out at them. with that being said they can be searching Metal detecting stuff on youtube and a video about CRH pops up from the list of relevant topics. All bc someone felt the need to plaster a video on how to get free silver from banks.
I could are less how many articles are written, said articles are not jumping off the screen at people while they channel surf on youtube, videos are.
There could be 1 millions articles about CRH online, that point is meaningless. How do you think people get the idea of searchign or looking up said articles. From to many people opening there mouth, without that how would they even know what to search or look up fro info about the hobby
 

point proven

this F****** clown

 

I saw this video long ago. Agree, a clown. Like if tellers have available silver coins for the customers that say those words. What an ignorant clown.
 

I'll tell you how I got started.

I was watching an episode of Storage Wars and the "unit" had a can full of silver quarters in it. I'm sorry to say up until then I didnt know that pre 65 coins were silver. I did a bunch of internet searches on buying and finding pre65 coins and it lead me to here and Coin Community.

Without Tnet, I wouldnt have a clue how to do this
