Trip to Canada, what roll should I search?

[Yinzi50]

I will be on a business trip to our maple neighbor next month. I have a very close friend in that city where I am going to. I am thinking about call him to buy some boxes of coins for me so after the hugs I can start search for silver and may get him to do it with me. What domination should I ask him to buy? Dime? Quarter? 5C? I know half is out of question because the silver ones are bigger than the new non-silver ones. Anyone has done this before? If you did, what's your result?

They might both be good to search, but I'd bet on the dimes. I've been thinking about this same trip. Can't wait to hear the report.

Good luck !

0.999 Nickel Nickel! I always thought the US Nickels are pure nickel. I just checked they are made of 0.75 copper and 0.25 Nickel. There is new info for me! Thanks Klava! I definitely will try a box of Nickel for sure.
