today's 16 boxes--pics

just got finished with today's 16 boxes. out of the 16 boxes 13 were skunks. the other 3 gave up

walkers----3
bens-------3
1964-------3
40%-------19

starting next week i am decreasing my volume to 5K from this bank. that will cut my total volume in half from what i was doing this time last year. this time last year i was doing 14K a week between 2 different supply banks. now i will only do 7K. i will bump it back up when and if the finds pick up. this has been my slowest month by far in the 2 1/2 years i have been hunting. i have not even gotten 100 40% halves this month so far. oh well here are the pics

Re: today's 16 boxes--pics

nice score ! I would be happy with an average 1 silver and 1 40% per box.

That is higher than my avergage per box on smaller volume.
Dumping that would be a pain.
Cheers!

Not a lot of keepers but a high percentage of 90's. I've been noticing that with my boxes as well.
I'm cutting down on the boxes myself. At least for the remainder of this month and the first week of July. Don't want to chance jeopardizing my dump banks with too many visits.
Happy to hear that you broke that six weeks of skunks and near skunks :thumbsup: :thumbsup:.
Watch! You cut down to 5k and every box has a load of keepers. In this hobby you never know.

Not bad - at least a new roll and a half for the stash. Beats the solid skunks you've been seeing. If they weren't charging you it would be easier to take.

I think it's those 90%ers that keep a person going in this endeavor. HH.

The lots-a %40's is what used to keep me going. Found 128 of them in a Cold Call last week.
