Some personal goals for the year reached.

[GMan00001]

With the last 2 bags of pennies I just completed searching (posted in a different topic), I have now completed my goal of searching at least 1,000,000 coins for this year.

My goals for this year were as follows:

1) Search more than 1 million coins...Complete
Actual totals searched to date
Pennies: 493075
Nickels: 181427
Dimes: 197675
Quarters: 53652
Halves: 80522
Dollars: 961
Total: 1007312

2) Find more wheat pennies than in 2006.
2006's total = 1654
2007's total = 1633, but I lost the results from $100 when my hard drive crashed, so I probably already met my goal. Either way, I have another $400 in pennies unsearched at home...I'll pass it for sure some time this week.

3) Find more Indian Head Pennies than in 2006.
2006's total = 7
2007's total = 4...on pace, but I haven't had one in a while... I'm due

4) Find at least 2 rolls of war nickels...Complete
2007's total = 151
My one box war nickel hoard of 100 at once sealed the deal here.

5) Find at least 100 silver dimes...Complete
2007's total = 102 (88 Roosevelt, 5 Mercury, 9 Canadian)

6) Find at least 10 silver quarters.
2007's total = 8 on pace, my trip to Las Vegas in a couple weeks should complete this.....or at least I hope so

7) Average of at least 100 silver coins per month for the year (total 1200 or more)
2007's total = 1083 (151 war nickels, 102 dimes, 8 quarters, 820 halves, 2 non-canadian foreign coins)
Should be able to complete, just need to keep searching

8) Find a complete set of Jefferson nickels 1938-Present (not including proofs) in 2007
2 left (1938-S, 1950-D)

9) Complete my first set of silver Roosevelt dimes through CRHing.
7 left (1949, 1950-S, 1951-S, 1952-S, 1955, 1955-S, 1958) Note some were not found CRHing.
21 left to find a complete set in 2007 (found 27 of the 48 different)

WTG GMan! Now that you've reached most of your goals, does that mean you're easing up? I doubt it! You're a testament to tenacity and perserverance. As we speak a little old lady is planning on stocking machines with silver just for your arrival. Now if we only knew which machines...

We can't say that in California. Everybody has to use politically correct names so we don't hurt any feelings of offend.

She would be "a height challenged, elderly, non-alzheimer affected, female person"
