What is everyones Merc. to silver Rosie ratio?

This may be indicative of the types of places I'm hunting but my Merc. finds are running 5 to 1? Anyone else seeing this?
 
I would say that would be pretty close for the most part.Then in my area it has been about 40 mercs to a barber and 100-150 to a seated. Just depends on the day and where one is hunting. Yazoo
 
I don't have a consistency ratio because so much depends on the location I am hunting. Last weekend I found 1 Barber, 4 Merc's and 1 Rosie. When hunting newer ground, I might get mostly Rosies and clad or clad only.
 
What Larry said. I've never kept track. I just take the clad to the bank. Rob
 
I has been mostly even between Mercs and Rosies for me. I find 1 barber for every 5 Mercury Dimes however.

There is no way that we can ever get close to that Barber count around here. (I can count all the Barbers I've ever found on fingers and toes.) In fact, my silver dollar count is close to half of that and some folks never find one?
 
3 barbers, 1 merc, 1 rosie for me.

Silver is a little hard to come by for me but I'm happy when I find it.

I have some obvious type-o's in my above post. It is so irritating not to be able to edit a post after it has been posted. It should read...

"It has been mostly even between Mercs and Rosies for me. I find 1 barber for every 5 Mercury Dimes however."

sorry for the bad post.

You have 30 minutes to proof and edit your post Jack. The EDIT button is in the lower left corner.
 
Early in the year the mercs were dominant for me,but it has seemed to even out throughout the year.
 
Mine is right around 0:0. What? I never said I was GOOD at metal detecting :)
