Halves: 7 box skunk streak... gonna hit 8 tomorrow. Got 2 boxes of dimes in the meantime. 1 box was all brand new 2012's... told a funny story at a bank I don't have an account with, and exchanged the box for cash. Picked up 50 rolls of CWR's at 2 different banks. Rolls 1-44 netted me a 1958 rosie.
Roll #45 was different. Dumped it out and immediately saw several silvers, including 2 mercs. Was hoping for a solid roll...! Kept picking out silver here, silver there... finally, something to smile about...! This one roll had 30 silver dimes: a '41, '42, '46, '50, '52, '54x2, '58, '59, '60x2, '62x4, '63x2, and '64x13. Box was a sunk. Maybe I should stick to dimes... HH

Dimes have been producing more lately more than the halves. Halves have been constant, one 90%er and two-three 40%ers. This week btwn $175 in CWR of dimes and four boxes, I culled 47 silvers and two were Mercurys. Just like Rushfan, going through the CWR's I found a silver Roosie a few rolls in. Then I hit the mother lode with 39 in one roll, with one being a Mercury. The boxes produced the other eight with another Mercury. These Roosies help out a lot, as I am attempting to put together a $1000 bag of Roosevelts. With todays total I'm up to 6,346. Getting there.

Rushfan, great score. That's really amazing that the dimes were all concentrated in one roll like that. Would have thought they would be spread out more.
