DIMES

[MIhunter]

All of my half dollar veins are tapped out! I still pick up whatever loose and CWRs that I can find. I am finding 3-4 40%ers a month.

My new goal is 2-3 dime boxes a day, 6 days a week. Hopefully I will find 15-20 silver dimes a week.

So far:
Sunday
Box #1 - 2 FDRs
Box #2 - 3 FDRs
Monday
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 1 FDR
Tuesday
Box #1 4 FDRs and 1x1968 Canadian (50% Ag)
Box #2 1 FDR
Box #3 1 Merc (1944)
Wed
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 skunk
Thurs
Box #1 shunk
Box #2 2 FDRs

COINgrats on the 1950D! I've been through $3,000+ in nickels and have not found one, but I'm not giving up

 

[BuffaloBoy]

It took me about 50 boxes of nickels to get my first 1950d, and my second one came from a box about a month later. Go figure, its all about luck... hope you find one sooner than later

Hay MI; from reading a majority of your postings over the past few months, it appears that a family of SKUNKS have moved in under your house. Best remedy to rid them out is to find a Mother Load of AG dimes. That would chase them away for a time. Good luck & HH.
