Today I got 4 boxes of dimes. Normally I've been doing 2 to 3 a day. I only searched 1 box out of 4 so far & I set a new personal record for the most silver dimes in 1 box. FYI, the box code is 5697.
9 dimes were found as follows:

Mercury - '41
Roseys - '50x2, '57, '60, '63, '64x3

My previous record was 7 silver dimes in 1 box. I cant wait to search the other 3 boxes. Lately half dollar boxes have been skunks but at least I'm finding silver in dime boxes.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I give thanks every day to be blessed to find vintage coins.

Well I just beat that dime box record because the 2nd box produced 10 silver Roseys. I got some good boxes.

SWEET! That is definitely a great box.. Now go back and hit that bank especially hard.. There might be a dump.. Try to hit a couple more of the boxes with the same stamp number. Gotta milk every vein you find. :laughing7:

I HATE THE 2012 plague.. Nothing worse than when you finally get back to the car and realize you have a fresh new box of 2012 rolls.. Ugh...

Unless its Jan 1, 2012, then you just turn around and make a quick $20 on eBay selling them to some fool who thinks they are worth more than face value!

I have a few rolls put aside for the heck of it, but are people seriously that naive? I can understand rolls say from 2009, but 2012s?
