Dime Roll Searching

Excellent!

In today's news, my second-ever full roll of silver dimes. Marked "Chris 1987 silver", with 30 1964s (mostly P, some D) and the rest all Roosevelt spanning 1946-1963. Including the 45 I pulled from 4 CWR last week and 5 other silver dimes from both CWR and MWR over the last few days, thats fully 100 silver dimes this past week. I wonder if this will become less uncommon as folks start scrounging for gas money.

Amazing!

First five months of this year had been fairly successful in terms of pulling silver dimes - 28 pulled including 2 Mercuries... the last of those was a 1962 Philly pulled on May 28th. Not surprisingly, all but three of those silvers were from CWR.

Then came June... while I was pulling amazing stuff in Nickels and Quarters (and also a small cent hoard which I will post about later), the Dimes were not showing up at all... not a single silver pulled this month!

So what happens in July? First bank I hit on Thursday (July 2nd) gives me 10 rolls of CWR and in one of the rolls - one weighing 114.40 grams - these two coins are placed right next to each other!



Silver dime drought officially over!

Excellent!

Congratulations, John!

Thanks again, Errers and jbuck...

Well, Dimes continue their amazing July run for me. After a skunk batch of 10 MWR on Monday, Wednesday's similar purchase yielded two amazing keepers: a really nice clip on a 1966, and, most shockingly, a 1996-W!!!




Needless to say, this is my first 1996-W found in the wild. It also happens to be the most valuable dime I've ever found doing this, so a DOUBLE milestone coin!
