just for the heck of it lets play alittle game.
Put your guesses in for how many silvers the magnet and I will get out of 30 CWI BOA dime boxes. The closest guess gets some silver from me.

let the games begin

33.

Thanks for the contest. I like contests. I hope that I don't win, and that you do much better than my guess, but I just like the symmetry of that number.

Kindest regards,
Kantuck

Not true. They (dime and nickel) did have a low mintage, but they aren't some major rarity. Some are willing to pay, but the official mintages through December are:

Dimes: Philly (96,500,000) Denver (49,500,000)
Nickels: Philly (39,840,000) Denver (46,800,000)
