Dime score - FULL MERC ROLL!

[cuttybce]

Just when I was bemoaning my latest dime skunk streak, I stopped at a Citizens Bank branch in a supermarket on my way home from work. Picked up $200 in rolled dimes, one of which looked like it was about to crumble into dust. I found out why when I opened one end and saw a winged Mercury head smiling back at me. Opening the other end revealed the same glorious sight. So I carefully opened the roll when I got back to the car......they are ALL Mercuries!!! A CRH first for me!

Pictures and dates/mintmarks to come....Happy Hunting and Happy Easter to you all!!

Great find, but did you ask if the person who brought those in, brought in anything else Get back over there!!!

 

[cuttybce]

Yes I did......that was the only one.

Nice find. Way to turn back the clock to 1945!
Last roll of Merc's I bought was online for $45 when silver was at $14/oz... I'd much rather have paid just the $5FV lol.

Big congrats to you, I must have missed this post. It better not have been my regular Citizens bank!

WOW, awesome score!! I have been wanting some more Mercurys lately. I have thought about ordering a roll, but I just can't afford to.

You've given me hope (however slight), that I just may still find some in the wild. What a dream score!

Man..and I thought I was hot Shiii when I found one

Very Nice Find..I would be getting some more change from that place

 

[cuttybce]

Thank you all for sharing in the excitement of my find. I still can't believe it. All I know is that I am now more inspired than ever to search, because this is living proof that A LOT is still out there, just waiting to be discovered by someone in the right place at the right time.

It could be just around the corner......you just never know.

Happy Hunting to you all....I can't wait to read about the next big score!

I'll post a new thread shortly... but I just beat this! I just score 5 yes FIVE full rolls of silver CWR dimes! One full roll of Mercs and the rest mostly Rosies!

Funny, the other day I was questioning you thinking that it just couldn't happen!

 

[cuttybce]

Wow - nice job!!!! Can't wait to see them!!

SWEEEEEEEEEEET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[GlassyEyed]

Very nice indeed!!! Congrats on that one...

I have only one Merc and that one was a freebie from the Precious Metals company listed in another thread.

remember to check for key and semi key dates / mintmarks

 

[clovis97]

Congrats again...that is a wonderful find.

It is just very hard to imagine...finding a whole roll of Mercs. My wife and I are still talking about the single Merc we found.

 

[Bankboxsearcher]

Killer find! Never came to close to finding that many silver dimes. 1 dime is awesome for me.

 

[bnicholas26]
