33.

Thanks for the contest. I like contests. I hope that I don't win, and that you do much better than my guess, but I just like the symmetry of that number.

Kindest regards,
Kantuck

First off, good luck on the hunt.

4 Mercs
78 Roosevelts
3 Canadian
1 solid box of 2009 Dimes.

If you get a soild box of 2009 dimes hit the brakes hard after the first roll... 2009 dimes was very limited minting an they only was made in denver there was no philly 2009 dime or nickel

Not true. They (dime and nickel) did have a low mintage, but they aren't some major rarity. Some are willing to pay, but the official mintages through December are:

Dimes: Philly (96,500,000) Denver (49,500,000)
Nickels: Philly (39,840,000) Denver (46,800,000)
