Nice save, there is sure still a lot of silver floating around in circulation.

I still find an occasional silver coin in circulation, but it is getting rarer all the time. Congratulations!

Nice find- Congrats! Funny thing, but my very first silver coin was a 1961 dime found in New Hampshire in 1991, and I still have it.

You better believe it! I love finding these things. It's difficult to find in circulation, but that makes it all the more satisfying when I find one.

Great find! I used to have some friends in retail that would keep an eye out for me and come up with some every once in a while. We also did some roll searching a while back for Jefferson nickles and found two Buffalo nickles in boxes so there is still stuff in circulation, you just have to find it.
