Year in review
Nickels were exceptional for me this year. Half dollars were great as well but I need to hit another small collection dump again like I did in the summer with 40 silvers. Quarters were pathetic but I did not have high hopes to finding anything. The sole find was pure accident. This coming year I will get some quarters here and there but only to fill up holes in my folders. Dimes were okay and I will continue to get them.
Overall Silver Total
25.726 ounces found My goal was initially 10 ounces but I upped the goal after finding a little dump in the summer.
I officially have more silver found than bought and I want to keep it that way!
My goal for 2016 is to hit 26 ounces
Good luck everyone and have a happy new year!
