Nice! These are great finds from what I've read about Canadian roll searching. My suggestion go back to this bank and buy whatever you can in customer wrapped nickels ,more dimes and also quarters sounds like someone cleaned out gramps old hoarded change

Thanks everyone! I will definitely be heading back to this bank to see if there's more. I cleaned them out of all their dimes. Nickels and quarters next! I've done Quarters before but haven't found anything or done a significant volume as of yet. But now that there's an indicator... I'm going to try again. Nickels on the other hand, I've done really well on.

Nice finds Douglas! I've found a couple hundred silver Canadians over the last few years here in the US. Are you in the US or Canada?

I'm in southern British Columbia Canada. It's interesting you say that fistfulladirt, I find quite a few post 1964 Roosevelts, it seems up here American silver dimes aren't very common. Most of the time I just find one or two Canadians, but this was one of the better lots for sure.

Recently, I went to the bank to get some more dime rolls, and the teller said "We only have three rolls right now but I put them aside for you because they looked interesting." As she showed me the rolls I noticed what appeared to be a few silver dimes showing in the hole on the side of the rolls. I thanked them and went home to open them. I thought "Great there's going to be five or six in here!" Got home and opened the first roll and on the end was a Mercury dime, my heart skipped a beat. as I unrolled both of them this is what I found. 100 silver dimes, a mix of Canadian, and American, Mercury dimes, Roosevelts, a 1907 and a 1912 Canadian as well. I gave the bank tellers Starbucks gift certificates as a thank you. Best find ever!!    |

Solid silver rolls, congrats! I'm still waiting for a solid silver dime roll. I've searched well over $100,000 in customer-rolled.

Congrats!! You just got Salted!! My buddy and me call getting a full roll of silver being "Salted"! We call getting more than one silver in a roll getting "Peppered" FYI
I wonder if anyone else have funny phrases or names for things they find!?
