$250 in pennies yields surprise silver

[goldencoin]

Hello, I got 10 boxes of hand rolled pennies from one of my favorite pick up banks (last batch had a flying eagle cent in it). I didn't get anything too nice- 69 wheat pennies(3 pre-30 and a steel cent), 22 pre-60 canadians, 1990 Bahamas 1 cent, and a 1957 D Roosevelt in a penny roll. It was so dirty, it was hard to tell if was even a dime or not.

Those old canadians are hard to find in my neck of the woods!!

A silver dime in a penny roll, congrats!! Keep on searching.

10 boxes of HAND ROLLED pennies? I'd be thinking they would be somebody's dumps, but hey, you got a steelie, lots of wheats, and silver! I have yet to find a steelie in one of my penny rolls, MWR, and I have done 75+ boxes .

I would soak that 1957 dime in ketchup for 6-12 hrs and then clean with tooth brush
