Best dime box yet - Broke into 1800s + Mercury Ender

Best dime box yet - Broke into 1800's + Mercury Ender

I opened the box to a Mercury ender 1942. I found another Merc 1945, 1968 canadian silver, 3 roosies and my first 1800's coin - a 1899 Barber dime. In Fine condition, great details. Best box of dimes ever. As normal for most on here, I average only a dime or so per box. Seven silvers and this age of coins was superb.

My bank always orders 2 boxes of dimes and 1 box of halves. I asked for 2 boxes of halves this week, they only ordered 1 box of halves, but gave me 2 boxes of dimes with it. Happy turn of events! Feels good to get my first 19th century coin, and makes up for a lackluster week.

Sweet! Still waiting for my first barber dime.

Might be a long wait, I am at three years with no Barbers.

Congrats on your baber! I'm still seeking the ever elusive barber half. -_-

I found a barber half.
But no dime.
Maybe I'm luckier than you! Haha

good job on the 1899! I still have to break into the 1800s. I thought i would never find a barber but sure enough i found a 1903 and a 1907 in the same box.

Now that is what I call a "sweet" dime box! Nice pic, too.
Congrats!

sweet box!
A trifecta+ for sure, you got the barber, the merc, and a roosie, also on top of the trifecta, a silver canadian dime! Can't ask for a better dime box.
Get more from this batch!
