WildYapok Valued Member Canada 83 Posts	Posted 02/24/2013 5:23 pm I went in to the bank today (I like having one nearby that is open Sundays), and asked for 10 rolls of Nickels, 6 rolls of Dimes, and 5 Rolls of Quarters. When the guy came back he commented that the dimes looked really old and wondered if I wanted the other 4 dime rolls that were with them. I said yes, and wow am I glad I did... 10 Rolls of dimes - 505 Silvers (1966 and older) and 11 potential silvers (1968). Over a thousand dollars in silver from $50 of dime rolls! Pictures to follow... Report this Post to the Staff

WildYapok Valued Member Canada 83 Posts	Posted 02/24/2013 5:28 pm Pictures aren't great but here are some samples... A variety of the different years I got. Alas, the 1928 is extremely worn, but still made me very happy! Cheers! Report this Post to the Staff

Bm0ney Pillar of the Community Canada 1005 Posts	Posted 02/24/2013 5:47 pm Please do not take this as offensive in any way. I just want to ask, nothing personal. Why do you say potential silver's? They look, sound, feel and are 100% different compared to nickel and do not stick to a magnet. Report this Post to the Staff

I strongly suspect the 1968's are the silver ones too based on look and feel.. however I haven't yet run a magnet by them to be sure so I didn't want to claim they were as of yet :) Report this Post to the Staff

The dimes in question are Canadian dimes. That is why the dates are 1968 and older. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 02/24/2013 11:08 pm Congrats on a fantastic find! @kurrykid Quote: I had heard that there could be some 1965 dimes but I never heard about anything higher years being silver...interesting! Remember he is talking Canadian coins. They kept silver in their coins until 1968. S For dimes and quarters: Pre 1967 coins are .80 silver 1967 are either .80 or .50 silver 1968 are either .50 silver or made of nickel For half dollars and dollars, all were .80 silver through 1967 and nickel after that.
