Cutting it close

Found my first silver dime of 2016 while going through some rolls today. I don't CRH in volumes like some of you here so if I can manage to find at least one silver coin each month this year I will be content.

That being said it is the end of January and the first silver I find is only 50% but silver is silver right? 🙃

This is actually my first silver of the year as half dollars haven't produced anything for me so far. I also found my first Coinstar save yesterday which oddly enough was another Canadian dime. Too bad it wasn't silver.

Nice! I always get excited when I find a Canadian '68, but they've all but non-silver for me.

Any day with a silver find is a great day! Nice save!

Looks good to me, you magnet tested it right?

Many times you can tell the silver '68 just by the patina alone.
Keep it up -

I really love finding the silver Canadians, found couple hundred so far here in Mich, oldest being 1900. Not too difficult, and it's always a thrill.

I could tell by the way it looked that it was silver but I double checked with a magnet as soon as I got home. I've found other 1968's but mostly clad. I love finding Canadian silver. I found four silver Canadian dimes since I started CRH a year and a half ago.
