Been dabbling in halves for about a year, usually find a couple. Since I can't md here in WI till spring, decided to try dimes, also. So I opened an account at a local bank to avoid any hassles. First box had 2 silver, thought that was ok. Next weeks box had 8 silver, boy, thats pretty good. Opened up my 3rd weeks box, and saw 4 silver on the ends of the rolls!! Whoopee!! I think this box will be super!!

if the ratio holds....you should end up around 100..

4 silver out of the 100 showing = 4/100 = 0.04

0.04 * 2500 dimes total = 100 silver (Final Answer!)

Gman you made me feel like an idiot just so you know.

I had it at .08 because I used 50 rolls and didn't do the double sides. =(

Hey Mick,

How long does it take to do this box? I would have had that thing torn up before I even made a post in the first place! Some of us are curious here!

So far I have done 35 rolls and there are 42 Rosies. Saving the others till Christmas Day when my gf will be here, trying to get her interested. I have not opened the 4 rolls I pictured here. In fact, one of those rolls has a silver on each end. Its been hard not tearing all them open, let me tell you!!!

I would imagine!

Jeeze... when I would roadtrip with a friend, there were times when I would either need to to back into the bank or simply leave it after he had already hit the teller for halves, while I was getting dimes or pennies in addition, and by the time I made it back to the car he would have already opened all the half rolls without me (we went half and half on finds).
