400$ in halves and a box of dimes

[Seagates]

Today I picked up 400 bucks in half dollars I got 2 90% and 5 40% out of it not bad! (2 1964, 1965, 1967, 2 1968D, 1969d)
Also picked up a box of dime and got 3 silver rosies (1951, 1954, 1964) A centennial Canadian dime (1967) And a dime which i think may have a cud and planchet combo error? I took more consideration in my photos of this dime because i'm curious as to what you guys think - it is banged up and stretched a bit - there is also a dent that goes through to the back of the time in rosies forehead please take a look and tell me what ya think!

I'm obviously QUITE a newbie at the whole coin roll hunting thing so any opinions of the dime would be appreciated.

Nice score on all the Silver. The Dime looks like post mint damage, but I am no expert.
Keep up the good work.

Welcome, nice finds, especially the Canadian. That other dime looks like maybe it was placed in a vice, although I'm no expert.

The Canadian dime you have is 50% silver

More silver for the pile!!!!

post mint damage seems like the verdict - thanks. also how are you sure that dime has only 50% and not 80%? did the 80s have different designs? As far as i can tell they minted more 80's than 50's that year - i honestly can't tell.

50% silver, 50% copper (30.6M)
80% silver, 20% copper (32.3M)

they did make silver dimes with 80/20 and 50/50 that year.Most dealers pay more than 50/50 but less than 80/20.Even they have a hard time telling which is which.
