My first box of dimes. Although random on how they are pulled out of the box, I got a 1945 merc dime in the first roll and 1964 in the last roll.

I found my first Mercury dime (1945 P) tonight in a Brinks box. Also found a 1963. 2 more boxes await me for tomorrow and I think I may get a few more boxes to search.

Ive found more silver foreign dimes than US dimes in brinks boxes. I also found more foreign silver dimes in lose change than us dimes. The weirdest thing is I hardly come across foreign coins much. I look through a whole box if I'm lucky Ill find 2 or 3 foreigns in a box.

Searched 3 boxes from 3 different banks. I found 5 silver - a 45', 50', 54', 60' and 63'. I planned to get more today, but some work is being done in my house, and they are taking longer than expected.

I did 3 boxes over the weekend for a total of ONE silver dime. At least it was not a total skunk.

Valentine's day from my wife, she found 2 mercs, sailboat, and 3 roosies at work, 2 months finds for her. I searched 4 String boxes and phooey, 2-40's. I really didn't expect that many! Half boxes are really boring. I've searched 4 boxes of halves total this year. Finds from crw tho  are decent.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72

Searched 10 boxes over this past weekend. Found 15 silver icluding 2 Mercury dimes (44' & 45'). Tough work searching dimes, but at least I found something.

Was that from CWR or bank-wrapped? I'm planning to go through some dimes for the first time in weeks on Friday.

Definitely CWR, you'd never find that in a Bank wrapped roll. When they (bank/brinks) roll it, a solid roll like that would just mix into all the other coins in the sorter and combine with all the post '64. I don't think I will ever see that many silvers in a bank wrapped roll. I hope to be proven wrong!
