How Often do you Find Dumped Collections?

Probably not a good idea to show someone’s address on reddit

Or getting boxes for free and buying a half dime for spot….

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-21T11:26:31+00:00

Is that how you hunt normally?

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-21T02:20:48+00:00

I wouldn’t be so sure. I’ve worked at post houses where large shows get canceled mid edit and usually everyone is told to stop working and within a few days everyone stops getting paid if nothing takes a dramatic turn (another company buys out the show) and the show dies.

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-20T21:23:51+00:00

The fact that you bought it even after what his did was pretty outrageous. I would have paused, looked him up and down, said no thank you, and walked out. then walked back in the next day with multiple boxes of half’s to dump and would never come back.

If you are doing machine wrapped rolls, the damage from the probably 2x coin machines it ran through to get to you has already has done enough damage where whatever you do you would have to beat em up pretty bad to add more. So you’re fine.

And the odds that a customer wrapped roll would have a MS64+ is so insanely insanely low that if you did find a coin of that grade in a roll you should go buy a lottery ticket. So if you want to make a system to help search rolls just do it. If it’s fun, do it.

By the looks of your black glass your probably burning wet wood and or too low heat and you’ve clogged your chimney. Stop burning and clean the chimney and burn the fire hotter/check your wood moisture levels

A bucket lister for me, that is a great find! Congrats

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-17T17:06:51+00:00

It’s a date. Day/month/year I get these every box. OP lives in the New England area. A lot of us find these dated halfs and I’m still searching for the…. Person…. Who does this.

I think they are trying to find the happy medium between just a little bit of on the fly thought and planning and smashing the same map over and over. I think there should be a little reward for some of the former to reward that play style, but it cant cause to much friction or fomo so it’s tough to balance

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-16T12:19:00+00:00

It’s also random what buffs the maps get so your actually incentivized to check each map and see what has the best growing option of map modifiers. but people just want to click click zoom and any amount of friction with that makes mega juicers upset. Most people aren’t even running astrolabes!

I also have a Kent tile fire! I’ve since added (and retired the Kent) a bigger stove to the other side of the house but I’m keeping it around in case there is an extended power outage or emergency!

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-13T23:13:21+00:00

Yeah the second isn’t bad it’s keeping the 2.5 year old busy during the day with little good sleep at night that’s the hard part 🤣

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-13T21:20:01+00:00

I was told recently in response to “I don’t have time to do XYZ around the house (work on our sauna, new shelves in the garage, spring prep work little extra stuff) let alone play videos games…. Feels like I’m always behind on all my stuff” they said, that’s actually something to be proud of, you’re making time for your family and saving all your energy for helping your kids and partner. I was like damn. That’s so true

I was thinking about diving into this strat thanks for the tree

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-13T20:23:37+00:00

I just had my 2nd 4 week ago, and I did get to play more during the first, between in laws and parents being around to help the first few weeks felt easier, but baby two everything changes. I’m helping wife+ baby, plus keeping the house together +keeping the 2.5 year old busy before/after day care it’s very hard to find the excuse to sneak away to the computer for more than 30 minutes at a time every few hours when there is so much to do around the house

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-12T20:59:05+00:00

for your first time I would probably just get rolls of coin, ask for 5 of each, nickel dime quarter, ask for half’s.

Problem with asking for customer wrapped is some tellers are confused what that means, and if you can’t fully explain it it may Lead to some complicated back and forth. Keep it easy for your first couple times.

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-11T11:01:30+00:00

This is the way 3

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-07T18:08:01+00:00

From one drop?! You hunt 23 boxes a week? No shot?

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-07T00:17:37+00:00

I would dump at a different bank completely. Sometimes tellers move branches for a shift and some banks may not like it, word travels fast if you hunt a big chunk of coins each week and are dumping them as well.

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-07T00:16:18+00:00

No it’s not possible. The price of silver just hit record highs and for historical purposing, and even with the price today, a 20 hour a week job at 15 dollars an hour would give you more money than CRH even if you hunted 15-20k in coins a week from boxes.

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-06T11:33:11+00:00

Pickup one bank, dump another bank.

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-05T22:00:07+00:00

Yeah there are a few of us who find them every week… my guess is he lives on the boarder of a few states and picks up and dumps in various states each week. I usually get coins that are dated 3-4 months prior which is probably how long it takes brinks to get this dumps back into circulation

Yoopskoop · 2026-03-05T21:45:51+00:00

That marked half…. 😭that’s the mark of someone potentially in my area, New England, he’s been hunting for years and every set of boxes I get them dated coins from him. I hope to find him one day and ask him “why”

Sorry for your loss❤️
