Nice haul! Like the cameos.
I really enjoy finding the silver Canadian here in the States, I've found about 200 in the last couple years. About 60 of them are the 50% silver 1968 dime.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72

I love it when a roll hunter is happy to get a clad US coin! I love getting Canadian cents, too.

Quote: those clad dimes are worth 13.4 cents in our cash Good point. I wonder what sort of volume we'd have to do to ship from my place on Michigan's Keweenaw to Thunder Bay ... do you think anybody would catch on?

I don't think they are sterling they are magnetic but I believe the mint made them in sterling as well
