I have been finding a LOT of silver canadians lately....27 in my last 7 boxes!! Anybody else finding more than usual? Pic is todays keepers from 3 boxes...

I have not seen a influx of canadians. You just hit a collection dump thats spread out threw the boxes. Its like any other dump, mercs, fdr, barber. Keep going and get them all! HH

Mark, These boxes were 5 weeks apart, so i dont see it being a collection dump. 4th box had 2 more Canadian silvers, 1913 & 1968

It still can be. you may not
Realize how big the dump was. I had a similar situation last year with mercs. From October to January I was finding boxes with 3 to 25 mercs in them. They were all worn the same and had similar toning so I knew it was from the same collection dump. I'm not saying this is the situation but just in case it is I would up your searching for the next few
Weeks you might find a awesome box or two. Good luck

That is awesome, Canadians don't really circulate in my part of the US, but it is always neat to find some foreign silver :)

:coffee2: I don't do dime boxes but I can tell you that occasionally I will find silver Canadian coins in the reject chute. I've found silver Canadian dimes & quarters but no silver Canadian half.
Maybe you're intercepting all the silver Canadian upstate before they get down here to us downstaters (lol). I've found loads of steel Canadian coins down here.

Silver's in a big downtrend. Many collections are being dumped...I saw this happen back in the early 1980's also.
