billfrak Valued Member Canada 496 Posts	Posted 01/04/2014 5:40 pm I thought I could streamline my sorting of dimes before rolling them. I'm only looking for 1969s I floated a magnet over the pile trying to eliminate the steel plated ones but it sucked up dimes from the 1960s,70s and 80's. I'm a little confused.

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9886 Posts	Posted 01/05/2014 12:55 pm Sort them first by obverse, the '68-'79 have a distinctive large portrait design. Hope you find the large date you're looking for, meanwhile keep buying lottery tickets. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

billfrak Valued Member Canada 496 Posts	Posted 01/05/2014 2:12 pm The lottery hasn't paid off yet, and I know if I don't check the dimes I'll always have that picking at me in the back of my mind. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9886 Posts	Posted 01/05/2014 2:25 pm I've got a few rolls of previously searched 1954 nickels. Haven't looked at them in a few years. As long as I delay looking through them there's a possibility an NSF is there. It's much like having a lottery ticket with a draw date of my choosing,although with lower odds of winning.
