Congrats on the silver! One question, and don't take this the wrong way, why do you open the MWR so slow/awkwardly? I do a lot of dimes(rather, I used to) and I can blow through a box of MWR in 20 mins or less. It's easier to snip the ends with scissors. Peeling them like that will take you forever to get through a box.

I open MWR dimes with my fingernails, I can do a box in 20-25 min

Loomis and the other coin handlers don't cull silver because it isn't worth their time.
We coin roll hunt for fun, they separate, count and wrap coin for a living. To them, time is money.
I CRH for relaxation.

You may say, silver is money! Yes, but there isn't enough silver in general circulation, for it to be worth it to slow down their coin counters to separate out the silver.

I push a small knife through the end and pry it off work good!

I soak most CWR in isopropyl alcohol for a night and then light them on a piece of sheet metal on a cement slab.

That's interesting. Won't the alcohol damage any good coins though

LOL no problem, I have it in my mind that I can reuse the wrapper, if I open it carefully. I just fool around with CRH anyway. I don't do any volume. Honestly, its just an excuse to make a video.

Cool silver dime! Always a brighter day when it pops out :laughing7:

I agree 100%. I enjoy CRHing. Any silver to me is just a nice bonus. Kinda like fishing, Im not doing it to live, but to have fun!!
