That is some serious hunting. I can only dream of the day when I can do such amounts. CONGRATS!! Here's hoping June is even better for you.

You got the record for most boxes searched in a week here based on everything I read so far from members. You got half of them being skunks which is similar to what I get out here. Glad you're not in my area but enjoyed your post.

Can't imagine going through that many. How long did it take you? Sounded like it turned into a job. LOL

I only edge search so it only takes me about 10-15 minutes per box. I still have a ton of fun doing this, when it ceases being fun I'll either slow down or stop completely (at least boxes).

The only part that felt like a job was 18 boxes that I got on a small road trip, 4 each from 3 different banks and 6 from another. All 8 from 2 of the banks were complete skunks. 2 of the 4 from the other bank were skunks too. 4 of the 6 from the last bank were skunks. That's what really hurt my skunk box percentage, 14 skunks out of 18 boxes. Had I stayed closer to my normal areas the percentage would probably have been much better. The worst part is that on my way to get the boxes I stopped at about 30 banks and my total take was 1 silver dime. That's what really hurt, the lack of hunting finds. I found a few CWR $20 half rolls and thought I'd struck silver, but no just a lot of skunk per roll.

I will not be returning to that area anytime soon! I feel like I may have been picking up from Ugotit's dump banks...

Very true.. when you get skunked a bunch.. it's not so fun. Doing a box in 15 mins. is amazing. I'm guessing you don't re-roll them since you have coin counters.

Hadn't seen Ugotit in a while not since they stopped ordering for him at his banks. He was doing crazy volume too.
