Well, last week when I picked up a halves order and was shorted, I decided to get a couple of boxes of dimes to break the ice. One was a Brinks box with clear plastic rolls, and the other a Strings & Sons box.

Today I took a quick break from my halves boxes and went through the Brinks box, and found my first silver dime! It is a 1943 merc, in fairly decent shape.

Great First Silver Dime Score!

I always had more luck with the String and Sons wrappers than the brinks. Hopefully theres plenty more silver headed your way!

Opened the second box of dimes and found a 1945 merc in the second roll. Went through another few rolls and didn't find anything. Can't finish the box until I get through all my halves boxes.
