Was going through one of my Brinks boxes late last night with only 1-Rosie so far. Then I noticed a darkened rim coin that caught my eye. I normally date check all my coins, and glad I do, for I noticed the reverse side of the coin first, and it happened to be the laurel wreath that's on the back of a Barber dime. I figured it's a Barber and so be it and I'm happy with that. However, upon turning it over to the obverse, low & behold its a 1876-cc Seated Liberty Dime, in VF-ExFine condition. After picking myself off the floor from the excitement, I looked at it again, sure enough I am now a member of the "Seated Club of CRH's". I'll put attached pics ( however blurry - sorry ), but still the same you've got to believe me on this one. BTW, only had that one Rosie besides this trophy in the box. Remember, it came out of a BRINKS box !!!!!

Sarcasm or don't know? If the latter then it is a box of coins delivered to the bank by Brinks.

no I really don't know what you all are talking about by that jargon. ok so you mean same thing as getting rolls of coins
at the bank and looking for coins that are worth keeping. ok now I understand. Thanks for explaining.
I'm a Th'er but I don't know every method on the planet - far less every niche lingo.
My step-dad used to do this and he had a impressive collection. Well keep on looking and finding! HH!

Brinks boxes are the ones with the clear plastic wraps. If that helps at all.

For dimes I would be happy by just belonging to the MERCURY CLUB at least. Congrats on this great find.

I hope you were 'sitting down' when you found that. Just sayin.......

Sincere congrats on the find. That seems to be a VERY exclusive club indeed.
