United States Mint Opens Sales For 2015 March Of Dimes Special Silver Set On May 4

Ah, yes, that as well. Actually, probably more likely than the Teddy C&C.

Anyone dare use their RP dime as a pocket piece to go for the lowball record?

Even beat and worn it would still be distinguishable as a RP because of the date and mintmark and silver composition.

I would be game if the dime wasn't so small.

I misplaced my 1964 one weekend when I threw my pocket pieces on the table when I got home one Friday after workd and spent all weekend looking for it.

Turns out it was sitting on my desk at work all weekend the whole time

Too small for me to be a pocket piece...definitely would be accidentally spent

I use a Euro 20 cent golden coin both as a pocket piece and a golf ball marker..no biggie if it is lost and people think it's a gold coin on the green

I tried a SAC $1 but that turned a really ugly color

Thank you for the clarification.


For what it is worth, using the reverse proof as a pocket piece would be an example of taking crazy to a whole new level.

I just imagine the March of Dimes proof dollar would be covered in fingerprints rather quickly.

Sometimes, I like to envision what certain coins would look like when worn heavily. It's kind of like imagining what a building would look like if abandoned for ten years.

Looks like this set officially sold out on Aug 7th (though it has essentially been sold out for 3 months).

These look like they are finally starting to thin out a little. The RP is holding up well in price, at least the MS70 is, goes for right about 100. Raw sets look to be going for 70-80. Someone had some 7 hundred something raw sets of them up and most of them sold out for 89.

Assuming you want to sell it. I do not,

Take a look at it again soon. I look at mine often. I really like it.
