My bank wont order me halve dollars anymore which is why i have not posted in a few weeks! So after some thought i decided to clean out there vault and make them my dump bank now ( they thought the fees added up ordering wait til they see what i deposit ) So i bought all there hand wrapped rolls $650 dollars worth.

In my first 10 rolls i had already found 2 64's and 3 candians ( in the 50's )

When i opened my 11th roll i got 6 more including a 1944 Merc

And the 12th roll is something i figured i would never EVER see or do in this hobby! And that is i opened a roll of 50 silver dimes 10 of which were Mercs and the other 40 being Silver Rosies. Ive checked for errors and there were none but the Mercs had to have been someones collection all in semi decent shape and none of them were the same three of them were actually different years with the S mint mark.

In total i got

3 candian
10 mercury dimes ( which is 8 more than i found all of last year )
75 silver rosies

for a grand total of 88 silver dimes

Nice! I just finished my 5th skunk dime box in a row.

Try some that are customer rolled. I tend to do better in those than boxes.
