Good plan, Mulder. I wish you luck. Finding that dime got into me, so I picked up two AU Peace dollars yesterday. Love them too much, maybe.

I worked at a convenience store a long while back and picked up some silver dimes there. I was hoping for more, but I think those were lifted from someone's stash. The thing is, this all takes time. Nothing good comes all the time. You just stay focused, work at your passion, and good things happen.
Yeah, I love the Peace dollar. Funny thing is I don't collect them slabbed. I collect the Morgans in MS64. A lot more detail to the Morgans.

i usually check, never find. I do however, find an occasional gem, in the reject tray in the coin counter in my bank branch. I have found a few foreign coins, a couple of silver coins, and several wheat cents there.

The grocery store by me has a coinstar machine by the exit. So I go in through the exit and casually look down at teh reject tray as I walk buy so as to not look like a total Hobo. Everytime I walk in there are AT LEAST 4 people or families leaving out of the doors so there is a lot of foot traffic past that machine. I did manage to score a silver Roosevelt dime in there once and since I al already at the store it doesn't hurt to check.

I have had better luck though with halves at the bank that is in the same store.

i never had luck with coin roll hunting at all, if anything I've lost money because people cant count when they deposit hand rolled coins

Coinstars do reject silver coins, so there is always a chance for a small score :)
