A promising box....

Well, you can't see it too well YET.... But we picked up a box of dimes today and there is a Mercury dime peeking out at us! My one son has not found a merc yet and has been feeling left out... So he gets to find this one. As hard as it may be to hand over this roll!

It's always nice nice when you see a Merc looking back at you this happened to me 3 times, at least you have some guaranteed silver and good luck with the box. :occasion14:

Well we opened the box... We had 4 mercs! 2 1942's, a 1944, and a 1935. Then we also found a '64 Rosie, and a beautiful '53 Rosie. My son also found a gold plated 2000 p. (Or at least gold plated looking) He was so excited his hands were shaking. I hadn't the heart to tell him that it wasn't worth much but, unfortunately, someone else did. It crushed his spirit. I feel so bad. I have half a mind to go into a coin shop and give them some money to buy it off him for an exciting amount....
