Well, despite a strong finish with my last 5 boxes the haul from February was a low overall.

42 Boxes Sorted - 30 skunks

1.0714 silver coin pulled from each box on average
.2336 oz silver pulled from each box on average.

Hopefully the trend started by the last 5 boxes will continue for at least a little while and March will start an uptrend.
