My CRH activities had been drastically reduced the past 4 years due to this thing called "parenting".

But yesterday decided to stop by a local bank and asked for large dollar coins and halves. And large dollar coins I' ll get as she plopped down $200 worth of them. She also asked me if I wanted additional $195 worth of dimes. Seeing they are not bank wrapped, I said sure.

The Eisenhowers were a bust, but in 1 bundle ($50) of the dimes and with a different type of wrapping, this is what my wife and I saw:

Final silver tally from the bundle:

304 FDR dimes
64 Mercury dimes
& a 1914 Canadian dime

Total 369

There were 3 solid rolls including a full Merc. AND a few had 2 or 3 clads mixed in.

Now I know why I missed CRH, although raising 2 kids is pretty cool too...

What an incredible find! This makes me wanna try dimes for sure. I've only done two boxes so far and they were both skunks, but it seems like this is the time of the year to be coin roll hunting for some reason!
