So I have been continuing to buy one box per week, and so far during 2018 I have averaged exactly 1 silver per box. That is okay since I hunt while watching TV or otherwise relaxing.
Even better though, I developed a solid relationship with a local bank because I happened to know the head teller. I asked if it would be okay to buy the half dollar bags from their coin counting machine when full, and she said, "Sure". The bag was only 80% but I filled it by dumping a partial box and took the bag home. That was fun! I found 16 90%ers (one walker, one franklin, and 14 64's, and 6 40 %ers. I also found numerous commemoratives and a few NIFC's. I can't wait till the bag fills up again, although it'll be a while. Better yet, they have absolutely no problem with me taking the coins back to their machine for the dump at no charge... so I'm really not out too much for too long.
I'll update when the next bag is full.
They also offered me the other bags.... maybe I'll buy them too!
