DIMES

[MIhunter]

All of my half dollar veins are tapped out! I still pick up whatever loose and CWRs that I can find. I am finding 3-4 40%ers a month.

My new goal is 2-3 dime boxes a day, 6 days a week. Hopefully I will find 15-20 silver dimes a week.

So far:
Sunday
Box #1 - 2 FDRs
Box #2 - 3 FDRs
Monday
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 1 FDR
Tuesday
Box #1 4 FDRs and 1x1968 Canadian (50% Ag)
Box #2 1 FDR
Box #3 1 Merc (1944)
Wed
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 skunk
Thurs
Box #1 shunk
Box #2 2 FDRs
Box #3 shunk

Totals: 14 US silver dimes and one 50% Canadian dime

Hey guys, so this is my first week in coin roll hunting, yesterday I went to the bank and bought, $130 dimes, I was pretty happy as I found 7 pre 64 dimes...I am very new to this and dont reallly know what im looking for except the silver, but it was a great feeling. I cant wait to go buy some more!!!!!

Nice score today! Almost 2 a box, I am on a every other box average for war nickels and buffalos, maybe I should try dimes like you. Congrats!

I started a coin collection of US and Canadian dimes, so I keep one example of every non silver dime.
I keep US clad proofs when I find them, but they are not worth more than a dime unless in pristine condition. I don't find a lot of proofs. The 1970 Canadian is worth keeping because it is low mintage. Other than that, it is just silver! I don't bother with 2009 US dimes even though they are low mintage, if they are ever going to be worth anything it will take decades!!

Well I just went and bought my first complete box of dimes, I wanted 2 but I only called ahead for one, then realized I wanted 2, so tomorow will be 2 boxes...I am going to go through these, I will post my finds afterwards...I love this game, im already addicted...
