This story happened yesterday. I needed some change to buy something. I picked up three dimes out of random. As a habit, I always look at the year (who knows right?).:dontknow: Lady luck smiled upon me that day for I found this beauty!!

I work a retail register once in awhile! Found silver dime's rarely!
I did find a Very nice 1935 buffalo nickel with a full date....Gave it to my mom as that
was the year she was born! The most common silver find I have found in retail change
regularly is the silver war nickel..

That's a great catch. Doesn't matter where you find silver coins just that you found them. Congrats!

Nice! But, you may want to edge search first, as I've found modern US silver, dates will be between 1992-present.

Nice save! Don't ya just love it when the treasure comes to you!
Best I've done is a re-discovery of 6 wheat cents and 2 war nickels when I cleaned my corroded change, oh I did get a French Franc as a quarter in change.

I 'm just wait'n for a load of gold bars to come scoot'n in the door....could be a loooooong wait! Lol!
