A few years ago she scored a few rolls of silver dimes with plenty of mercs in them. She bought them all and sold them to her dad. He has since passed and her mom has them now. I just spoke with her and said we should go through them to see what value they might have. Any suggestions as to where I can find grading info online???

Nice find indeed. When I worked for a bank, many moons ago, I'd find some great coins, too. I think kids might have gotten into their parents' stashes and swiped them, just a thought as to why they are "still" in circulation. Probably were just tucked away until recently. We'll never know...but who really cares when your wife gets to buy it out of her counter cash?
