This week's box was the best since I started dimes back up: 54, 62D, and 64D. The 64D was a very nice AU dime.

Did my first dime box. One 64-D, one 08 Canadian, and quite a few 09-Ps (no Ds yet...but did get a couple 10-Ds). Was still interesting to search them.

120 in CCR and nothing. Found a 1971 Canadian dime. I guess I'll put that in my dark side bag. It sure is getting full!

I have yet to find a single '09 dime, but tonight at work I got a '10 D. Weird.

I've searched about ten boxes this year and am averaging about one silver Roosevelt per box.
Today, I looked through the first 49 rolls in a box without luck. The I opened the last roll and saw a telltale solid silver-gray edge among the dimes in that last roll and thought "Yehoo!".
It turned out to be a 1967 Canadian dime. I checked Wikipedia and found out what an odd issue this is: there were two varieties minted, in about equal quantities: one variety is 80% silver, and the other is 50% silver. And there's no easy way to tell one variety from the other! (There are a couple good threads on CCF describing the coin.)
So...a partial success.

I hate when the sail boats fake you out - at least you got a good one though (maybe)

Funny thing about the '67 Canadians, they are always sold as 50% silver, regardless.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
Roll hunting since '77
Dirt fishing since '72
