I learned this from one of the
grand old men of treasure hunting , Karl von Mueller, taken from the expression
“coin shooting” with metal detectors..
The deal is this. Buy from the
bank 50 cent rolls—I buy a 100 bucks at a time sometimes more—break open each
roll and look for the dates pre 1965 and 65 through 73. The banks do not
separate out the silver coins, I have found and continue to find whole rolls of
pre 65 coins free silver for a few minutes time. At about 10 bucks per coin,
todays silver price, it can add up very fast. For the 65 through 73 you are
looking at about 4 to 5 bucks a coin. Sometimes I have found nothing. If that
is the case take back the rolls back to the bank for your money back or just
trade them for more rolls. I mark the rolls I have been through so I dont do
the same roll twice.
This is a savvy way to make a
few bucks and the silver is free. Just take the silver coins to a place that
buys gold and silver and bam you have some easy money.
There is millions waiting to be
found right in the banking system and it is legal… it is just sitting there.
Almost any coin shop will buy. They will pay the spot price for your silver
coins. All over the country there are shops that buy and sell silver and gold…
One is close to you.
I have been doing this since
1968. I used to find way more back then even bought dime and quarter rolls then,
but not so good anymore. The half dollars did not circulate like the dimes and
quarters did, too heavy for most to lug around. You can pick up a 200 buck bill
for a bit of looking, every week if you are lucky.
Some folks like to keep the
silver coins and are waiting for the price of silver to climb higher. Thats
okay also it wont go anywhere.
You cannot lose any money the
50 cents is still 50 cents and you got it for free.
This is a great time of year to
buy those rolls of coins, as people are looking for bucks to spend on gifts so
those old stupid rolls of coins grandpa had are just sitting there and they
trade them in at the bank for bills at face value. The bank will not give you
the silver value.
All you do is ask the teller
for rolls of silver halfs or dollars if they have them. Very seldom do rolls of
silver dollars come up, but it does happen so always ask… jump on it. Small
town banks can be more productive in most cases you don’t even need an account
to buy rolls of coins.
This is just a way to self
reliance. Take the money you make and buy items to stock up on.
I have made a 1000 bucks at one
sitting in the past doing this game. It is easy to do and is just waiting for
the savvy guy to come along. I am always grateful for whatever I find. Have fun.
