You could first buy rolls of coins to do some "coin roll hunting" (CRH) to see if you can find some old coins mixed in, then you can always at some point buy silver coins later on with what's left over after (hopefully) finding some "keepers" doing the coin roll hunting.
But if he found any...he'd lose money, you see he'd have to pull money from his pocket to replace the coins he'd taken from the roll. That's a loss.
Can't you cipher?
