I do mostly half dollars but I wanted to get up to $150 face value in copper pennies so I bought a few boxes of pennies the other day and I was lucky enough to find this in a paper brinks penny roll.

Has anybody else found silver in a penny roll?

I have found a few dime in rolls of cents over the years but I don't think any of them was silver. Nice find.

A wonderful surprise.

I have found dimes in cent rolls, but never a silver dime.

Great find! One time I had opened a penny roll and they were all dimes! I made $4.50 instantly. It was really weird.

Now that is weird. Was the roll short? I cannot imagine a dime making a short roll feel right.

Yes JBuck. I was feeling bad for our fellow dime hunters in that finding Merc's is difficult enough that I should find a random 1942 tucked in with LMCs. Dumb luck that day.

I found this 1931 dime CRH pennies last year. This is the only silver dime, I have got lots of regular dimes CRH pennies.

Here is one that I found in a penny roll. Perhaps not the only one but I can't remember.
