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 Report this Post to the Staff

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 04/14/2011 12:57 pm 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. Report this Post to the Staff
Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 04/14/2011 1:57 pm 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.
