date stamp on the top of the dunbar box was oct.9,2006 That's odd. I speculate that older boxes would tend to have more silver, and that theory seems to hold true in your case. |

20 rolls of dimes today produced a 2009-P and 2009-D, along with perhaps the ugliest 1947-S you'll ever see!   CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

How are you sure it is a 1947-S?  No matter. Silver is still silver.  |

I'd take a crappy 47 over a nice 64 any day. Just my opinion.

How are you sure it is a 1947-S? My scanner doesn't do well on really ugly coins - had the same issue with my beat up 1887 nickel ... You hold it in your hand and it's clear as day. I'll try to take a picture with my phone along with my magnifying glass. Quote:

if its a hole filler, keep it. If not, you could sell it, or just stack it with the rest of your silver. Ive kept even my worst looking silver dimes, but some day they will be sold (hopefully I dont die and someone deposits them lol)

Hmm. At first glance it looks like 1943, but I know it has to be a seven. A testament to how rough he is. |

Oh yeah, I'm just stacking that one... I have a Mercury dime that I found a long time ago that has severe fire damage so it will go nicely with that coin... Anyways, check out this thing I just found in a MWR!   CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

Your dimes are starting to produce like your nickels do.  |

Your dimes are starting to produce like your nickels do. Yes, I know... and I like that! The dimes have the silver edge 2 to 1 the past two days... and that 1982-P error dime is very cool. It's already found its way into a 2x2! CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!
