Picked up a couple of boxes of dimes today. Got lucky with the first box and found three silvers. A 1953,1964 and a 1968. You got to like getting silver for face value

I went through 10 more rolls of quarters. Still no coloured 2017. I did find a nice coloured Mens Hockey, which is the only one I kept. I did find a couple of faded colour poppy's from 2004 and a bunch of other commemorative ones, but I really don't need any more of those.

Just got a box of nickels straight from TD. I got 12 rolls, searched prior by none other than me (Scotia transfers to TD?) And the other rolls were pretty bad. Only 40 99.9% nickels in the whole box
.
I'm getting another one tomorrow after I dump my coins at Vancity.

I know this is a little off topic but since some members posted their old banknote finds so I want to share mine.
So recently I found a very good source of old bills-my friend.
He found this:

Another box today. Literally just a pile of 2018 UNC nickels, with one roll of 2016 UNC, straight from the mint.

Just dumped them straight back to Vancity, as they have a coin counter.

The 5 CWRs from Vancity yielded a George VI nickel from 1947. That was pretty awesome.

I decided to pick up some rolls today. 10 rolls of nickels and 5 rolls of toonies. The alloy recovery program must be in full swing. Out of 400 nickels, only 14 or 3.5% were 1982-98 (75% copper, 25% nickel). There were no pre-82 nickels (100% nickel). There was a handful of 2005 Victory nickels that I held onto for the kiddies.

Out of the 125 toonies, there were no 2017's, but did come across one 2018 Armistice and a decent looking 2000 Knowledge.

Nice finds Buizel10 and Cdncoins! The ARP sure has made a huge difference over the last several years. My most recent hunt gave up 7.8% cupronickel and 5.6% pre-1982 nickels, which seems to be somewhat below average for me over the last two years. I guess it depends on being in a large urban centre (which I imagine are pulling at a greater rate) and also if there are other roll hunters in the area.
