Was busy runnin today sos didn't have time to open an account at the CU- maybe tomarrow. Consequently I have no halves ordered, not even from my other bank. I did however pick up a box of dimes and a box of nickels to play with. Will post the results- probly take a couple days though as the dates are so small on them dimes, couldn't see any silver through the coin condoms but hope for a dirty edge or two. Thinking of running up the mountains this weekend and checking out the casino's halves- never been into one so new experience, don't worry I'm too tight to gamble all my rejects haha. HH all, Mark

UPDATE: I'm switching off rolls, dimes, nickels, dimes, nickels. 5th roll= War Nickel. HH all, Mark
 

I ain't done yet LOL but I did dodge the skunk on the dimes too- less than an hour ago I pulled a '64 Rosie. What a thrill but that doesn't mean I'm gonna buy another box anytime soon LOL. HH all, Mark
 

We're gonna call you "squinty" after that dime box is done Mark! Congrats on the silver so far...
 

I know it- what a pain. I looked through all the plastic rolls and couldn't see any silver- I just knew the box was a bust but thought I may as well search for that elusive '82 without a P. I'm gonna stick to the halves haha. HH Mark
 

OK finally got through the boxes- alas no more silver but the one Rosie and one war nick but I did get 17 other pre '60's nicks. Here's a rundown: 1940 (2), 44D (silver), 46, 47 (2), 48, 49, 51, 52 (4), 53 (2), 58, 59, 60.
Box of halves coming tomarrow- time for more fun. HH all, Mark

Sounds like a plan, means more for me! ;) I love searching dimes. Not only are they small and light, I also have had pretty good luck in my limited searches. I plan on getting a box or two tomorrow when I cash in my rejects. Good luck and Happy Hunting.
 

Congrats on the silver. I agree...those dimes are awfully small. When I check a box of dimes I only edge search with my magnifying glass.....ha!

Checking dates drives me crazy! Just too small for me.

Anyway...kudos on the silver.
