I know people find weird things in coin rolls, but this piece of cardboard is what I found between worthless clad halves this last weekend. At least she looks better than another 1971D. I think I will keep her.

Second Story:

Is This 2001D Roosevelt Dime Silver?

I was edge-checking rolls of dimes and saw this one (see photographs below). Of course at first I thought it was silver. But it is a chrome-silver color, not the white-silver color of 90% silver coins. The edge is also completely chrome-silver, with no copper at all showing. But it is a 2001 and so I am confused. I know the Treasury made special 90% silver proof sets, but I suspect those were made in San Francisco. Can anyone offer any information? Thanks in advance to everyone.

LOL :laughing9: All i'v found in coin rolls besides coins are dog hairs and eye lashes. As for the dime I suspect someone just painted it with metalic marker to fool people.
