In Buffalo NY it is common for me to come across Canadian coins.
Not so much Canadian silver
I have 2 silver quarters
5 silver dimes
53,60, 61, and 2 68's
adding to that today is a 1958 silver Young Elizabeth
pretty excited I am half way through the box I'm searching and have this coin and a 1951 silver Roosevelt dime
what are your silver find rates for silver dimes in Canada
I usually get 2 silver dimes per a box of American dimes ($250)
thanks brothers and sisters to the North

I've been averaging 1 silver dime per 1000 coins ($100) searched.

I have been averaging 2 silver dimes per box searched. My best run was 11 dimes from 2 boxes. I will most likely search some dimes this weekend. I hope to get a few more.

Dad just got a 1959 dime in his change at the pharmacy. Amazing shape, too! XF+ They're out there. The other month he found a 1968 .500. I almost jumped when he was describing the black toning to me on the phone. I can see why it was discarded.

The rate is preeeeetty low. I can tell you, though, that the nickel rate for dimes is about 20% per roll consistently. You may have to go through a whole box to find a silver dime up here. I haven`t really tried.

congrats on the '61 hammer77
I ended up getting 3 us silver dimes and the 58 in the box I had
one more box to go. Hope the results are similar
find rates seem about the same in the us and canada though. Interesting in my opinion
