I am a HAPPY MAN ! ! ! ! Was out the other day and scored some silver all in one place. I only CRH but was at the grocery store the other day and was getting some margarita mix and as I was paying I saw what looked to be a silver dine in her drawer. So I asked the nice young lady if I could see all all of her dimes when she open up her drawer after the next customer. So she said yes and to my surprise as you can see from the pic there was 54 silver dimes. I wish I could find that when CRH. I can not wait to go out and see if any of them are valuable.

Keep Hunting.

Well you spotted them so it's the same as roll hunting. You don't have to go out to check them, just tell us the dates and more mint marks and we can give you an idea. Dealers gonna low ball you anyway.

It's no different than if you saw them in a bank tellers tray, it still qualifies as CRH. Congrats on the keen eye for AG. HH

Awesome score hunter. I've yet to rescue a barber dime from the wild. You gotta love clueless people who just give it up.

Thank you every one for the great comments.

Gold Maven – Yes she did just give them to me at face . . . She had no clue what she had. She actually had $8 in her drawer so I bought all $8 but only $5.40 in silver.
