DIMES

[MIhunter]

All of my half dollar veins are tapped out! I still pick up whatever loose and CWRs that I can find. I am finding 3-4 40%ers a month.

My new goal is 2-3 dime boxes a day, 6 days a week. Hopefully I will find 15-20 silver dimes a week.

So far:
Sunday
Box #1 - 2 FDRs
Box #2 - 3 FDRs
Monday
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 1 FDR
Tuesday
Box #1 4 FDRs and 1x1968 Canadian (50% Ag)
Box #2 1 FDR
Box #3 1 Merc (1944)
Wed
Box #1 skunk
Box #2 skunk
Thurs
Box #1 shunk
Box #2 2 FDRs
Box #3 shunk

Totals: 14 US silver dimes and one 50% Canadian dime

Box: (Mercs: 1943D, 1944, 1944D, FDR:1958D) these four were in the same roll, Canada 1961
Trifecta of dimes! (Merc, FDR, CAN)

Incredible! It would be awesome to find two mercs in one roll, let alone 3 mercs and an FDR!

I find with a lot of my silver dimes they are in very nice condition. I find a lot of bu looking silver dimes vs worn ones. What about you?

I am not sure what you mean by "very nice" or "bu looking"
Any silver dime I find looks very nice to me
For me to find a true BU silver dime is very uncommon.
Most silver dimes I find would grade between g4 and vf30
