*Official January 2013 Half Dollars and Other Coins

Postby Country » Sun Dec 30, 2012 7:12 pm

Hello Fellow SILVER treasure hunters:

In January 2013, please post your finds right here.

HIGHLIGHTS OF DECEMBER'S SILVER SEARCHING:

LOOKING FOR A DEDICATED INDIVIDUAL TO CARRY THE SILVER STATS IN 2013. I WILL HELP YA' GET SET UP, BUT IT'S A BIT MUCH FOR ME THESE DAYS. SEND ME A PM, IF INTERESTED. (I WILL CONTINUE TO MAINTAIN THE COPPER STATS.) IF NOT, EVEN WITHOUT THE STATS, I WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE MONTHLY THREAD FOR ALL TO POST.

COMING SOON!!

It's important to post your SKUNKS as well as your great SILVER finds. That keeps the statistics honest. I'll try to post some graphs of our SILVER finds as 2013 proceeds along by adding data to this initial post. I'll see if I can post some interesting insights into the data here in this initial post for 2013 too. Even though this is a national tabulation of all our finds, I think its fun to know what finds are being made and at what frequentcy.

It might be interesting to see how many Barbers, Walkers, Franklins, and 90% Kennedys are found too. Also, how many Barbers and Mercurys dimes we find. I'll try to keep track of all of these.

Now, go out and find that SILVER treasure!! :mrgreen:

Those of you who are considering becoming RealCent members - Why not join today and stake your SILVER claims right here? Compete with other members in the race to see who is the best SILVER hunter.

Statistical data includes all posts January 01, 2013 mid-night forum time and later.

Well, I thought I'd start the year with a little sorting. Sure hope these results don't foretell anything for the year.

Box #1 - Skunk

Box #2

1 1968

Box #3 - #7 - Skunks

Box #8

1 1966

Box #9 and #10 - Skunks
If you are waiting for the "correction" to buy you need to realize that the increasing prices ARE the correction.


$100 Silver soon coming to a location near you.

$525 in CWR dimes

3 silver Roosevelts '54 2x'64 :) Happy New Year!

3 nonsilver Canadians
1 Singapore 10


On my next post I'm going to start tabulating 2013's finds as a running total.
Similar to what I do on my Pound of Metal per Mile log.

Perhaps If everyone did this it would be easier for someone to keep stats.

2013 running total;

Searched: $525 dimes
Found: 3 silver Roosevelts
3 nonsilver Canadians
1 nonsilver Singapore
Pedal to the metal.
