Sleepys Most Wanted (Roosevelt Dimes)

[BuffaloBoy]

A 1918p mercury dime shouldn't have a mint mark.

A 1918p mercury dime shouldn't have a mint mark.

I guess what I meant was that it was really though to tell if anything was there in the first place...you can see what I mean in the picture.

Great find! Sorry, pictures don't show up on my iPhone with the treasurenet app.

I really like this thread - I've been thinking of trying to get a complete Roosevelt set through CRH myself, and your log is inspiring. Keep looking!

Halfway Point Reached in the Search for Sleepy's Most Wanted

Friday Tried pushing the dime volume higher for the second straight day. Today was my highest volume of dimes yet with $1550 searched. I know I'm at the halfway point in terms of quantity, but I also understand that I still have quite a bit of work cut out for me in terms of the Category 1 finds.

Awesome work! I never thought about searching dime rolls but I might have to after your successes.

Made a cheat sheet of your category list for my own searches. I wish there was a category list for other denoms, too.

I made the categories myself just to make it easier for me to know where each coin stands. It's not a perfect system, but it works for me. All I did was throw the years and mints into excel and place the production value in the neighboring cells. Then I organized it from least to greatest. Once I had that, I just threw it in here and have been updating the list as I go along. HH Sleepy.

Cool. I'll have to put something like that together this weekend then. Thanks. And GL on the search.
