good luck on those dimes!

are those bags of pennies and dimes from a coin counting machine in the bank or are they actually able to order you bags?

They are from a coin counter. Usually have pretty good luck with the bags... The teller that always helps me at one of the banks said "there's a bunch of wheat pennies in there, I saw a bunch go in while I was dumping the coins in" which obviously got me all fired up. It's not a self service machine, it's behind the teller counter. Should be a pretty good haul, I'll let everyone know how the dimes turn out later

Update: just finished bag of dimes #2, which was 10 times better than the first... Literally.

Final count was 46 American silver dimes (mercs and Roosevelt's) and 4 Canadian silver dimes, along with a few kinda cool foreign coins. I will post some pics later.

Epic score on that dime bag. I can only dream to get 50 silvers in 2 boxes.
Great job, waiting for pictures.
