  1. Two Silvers in the Slot

    Was picking up my breakfast bagel from the grocery store this morning when I spied a little surprise in the coin star. In the return slot there was one 1941 wheat cent, one 2006 Euro Cent, one 1997 Roosevelt dime, and two silver 1964 Roosevelt dimes. Then I found in the coin tray up top one 2006...
  2. Earn a little CASH with u.s. dimes???

    Hello there. I live in Canada so was wondering if I had a bunch of u.s. dimes from roll hunting wether I could trade them in at a bank and earn a little since they are worth more than our dimes. Do they do this or should I go somewhere else? Right now a roll of u.s. dimes would be worth about 6...
  3. I'm oFISHally HOOKED!!!

    This is my first official coin roll hunt. I looked through my mom's and sisters change and found 5 old coins and one clipped one... 5 were silver. That was quite awhile ago.

  5. Wife's CoinStar find

    My wife used to tease me about checking the Coinstar machines whenever we went out shopping and today i come in from work and she runs in and says "look what I got", hands me a 1936 mercury and a 1951 and 1965 Rosie dimes. Needless to say, I think she's hooked now.
  6. Bag of dimes

    I talked with my bank a few weeks ago and they were willing to sell me the bag of dimes from their coin machine when it was full. Today they called and I am going to get it soon. It has 6 to 8 weeks worth of dimes. Perfect timing too as I planned on buying a box to search while I watch football...

  10. Pair of dimes, pair of knives.

    I may have to change my user name to Butter... 'cause I'm on a roll. I found two more silver dimes today, the more impressive of the two being the 1918 Mercury. Yeah, they are just dimes... but it sure makes me smile to see some silver in the hole, after endless pennies. Not that pennies are bad...

  14. A Mercury Dime in the Teens and MY FIRST GOLD From CRH...

    I bought a bag of dimes to go through today. The manager was nice enough to pull it off of the machine early for me today before it was full ($857). In going through it I found three silver dimes. Two were Roosies (1960 + 1964), and the other was a Merc with the date so worn that it is difficult...
  15. Pretty Good (and Pretty Weird) Day Hunting Dimes and Nickels Yesterday...

    I have been getting barely anything from halves boxes since the beginning of the year (one or two here and there) so I decided to just go on an all out dime hunt yesterday. I stopped at five different banks and picked up a total of six dime boxes. I also picked up a box of nickels for fun. (I...
  16. Two Silver Roosies and The End of an Era...

    Afternoon Fellow Hunters, I went to one of my best producing banks today to pick a box of dimes they were saving for me. As I was there being helped by the vault teller, two different people were cleaning out their safe deposit boxes for good. I asked the teller what was going on and she said...

The third I found a 1943 walking liberty Benjamin Franklin half and 1 40$ out of two rolls. The fourth I found 3 40%s out some loose coins. And the last...
  18. $40 of Halves and $115 of dimes rssults

    I searched through $40 dollars of halves and found 8 1964s all in one roll very exciting. The $115 of dimes where less lucky I found only 1 1961 dime. By the way this was my very first time coin roll hunting so I'm very happy
  19. How I got silver from another person at the coin counter today for free

    This has worked for me several times and I am just sharing what I think is a decent piece of advice on getting more silver in your pocket when you notice another customer at the coin counter has it and doesn't know or care. The story: Teller is helping another customer to dump their coin jug...
  20. Weekly for Weaselbrott (7 boxes of halves, 1 boxes of dimes, and $800 cwr)

    I had a very disappointing week for halves indeed. Out of 7 boxes of halves and about 300 in [skunk] customer wrapped halves, I only got 2 90%ers, and 3 40%ers for the whole week. Some stampless and some 4-digit stamped string&son boxes. Out of 1 box of dimes and about $500 in customer wrapped...

    I've been around the CRH scene for a few months now, and have been a lurker of the scene since 2009. In that time, I have noticed there are a few different techniques that the pros use to get silver, and some pitfalls to them. I will list what I see, and feel free to post yours. 1. High volume...
