Rolls vs. Boxes

[Dr_Silver]

Do you have more success with finding silver, war nickels, and wheaties in boxes of coins or rolled coins?
Does any one have a strategy the use from bank to bank?
I usually get boxes for nickels and pennies with small to good results. Rarely, finding silver dimes and quarters in boxes.
I read that more people find silver in dimes over quarters. Not sure why?

Quarters are easier to notice being silver, so more are held on to.

 

[I've got the bug]

CWR (customer wrapped rolls) can be the most productive, but I order boxes.

I don't have a strategy, just order and hope for the best. Turn over is the name of the game, so if you can get 4 boxes of whatever you prefer to search a week, then you will be more productive than someone who buys two.

I buy halfs, dimes and nickles. I usually don't buy quarters because they are the least productive; they were horded more than any other coin it seems. That being said, I did find two silver quarters last weekend.

Welcome to the forum!

I get both, CWR's & MWR. CWR only because you just never know if by chance someone wrapped up a collection in rolls just to get fast cash from the bank. Returns are about the same.
