DIMES

[MIhunter]

All of my half dollar veins are tapped out! I still pick up whatever loose and CWRs that I can find. I am finding 3-4 40%ers a month.

My new goal is 2-3 dime boxes a day, 6 days a week. Hopefully I will find 15-20 silver dimes a week.

So far:
Sunday
Box #1 - 2 FDRs
Box #2 - 3 FDRs
Monday
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 1 FDR
Tuesday
Box #1 4 FDRs and 1x1968 Canadian (50% Ag)
Box #2 1 FDR
Box #3 1 Merc (1944)
Wed
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 skunk
Thurs
Box #1 shunk
Box #2 2 FDRs
Box #3 shunk

Totals: 14 US silver dimes and one 50% Canadian dime

Rough day....until I went to dump
I found in the coin counter
$26.23 in US coins
$0.66 Canadian
1.02 Euro
only one coin worth keeping (1978 Canadian nickel) but a nice profit in a rough day!

Man, even on your "Rough" Days, you're still turning a profit! Nice job!

I do have a book of merc dimes

Progress on the 1940s merc is great
I am only missing the 1940S and 1943S (2 out of 18) to have a complete wild set of 1940-45 PDS

As far as 1916-1939 goes, not so well
I have: 1916, 1917, 1920, 1923, 1928S, 1929S, 1935, 1936, 1936S, 1937
(10 out of 60)

Father time is not working with me as these coins are over 70 years old already. I do not expect to finish my merc collection.

Since this post last week I have found 13 Mercs, including 3 that I needed for my wild set (1924, 1939S, 1943S). Perhaps I spoke too soon, I hope my luck continues.

I had a streak where i found at least one mercury dime a week for a few months. .. since then I've found 5 or so all year.

i'd like to see your stash, how many solid rolls do you have? I just finished my first ever solid roll of dimes(from roughly 100 boxes searched, or 0.5 per box)

 

[44_Dimes]

You have had some great boxes recently!

 

[MIhunter]

i'd like to see your stash, how many solid rolls do you have?

20 rolls of FDRs
1 roll of Mercs
almost 1 solid roll of Canadian dimes

 

[Adamkir]

I just finished my 6th roll of Roosies have only 12 individual Merc's and 1 lonely Barber. But I've found 27 80%ers and 8 50%ers Canuck dimes.
Started in ernest last August/September. Although I think those are decent numbers lately its very hot and cold and it used to be very consistent 1 per box but usually 2 or more. Not anymore.. ↓

That's an awesome box hunter. One of my first few boxes ever had 7 Mercs but only 2 Rosies. It gave me some way too high expectations and it's all been downhill since lol. I have enjoyed keeping up with your thread though. Hope your luck continues!
