Dimes

[Rosco53]

Man...500 in dimes is sooooooooooo much lighter than 500 in nickels :-p Not a bad haul either:



Not bad when I was really just hoping to find 1. 5 Silvers is a new high (last was the reverse of the '56), so quite happy with that. Not sure if that qualifies as my "best" bag though, as my first gave me 2 silver roosevelts and a merc, so... Now to decide if I wanna try driving for more dimes, swap for quarters, or the presidential gold coins some customer dropped off... Happy hunting everyone!

What do you do with the bag after you exchange a couple of coins ?

 

[Rosco53]

I assume you mean the bag(s) the coin come in? It depends. Usually I just return them in the bag I get them in, tell the bank to go ahead and use it again. On occasion I'll fill a canvas (get 2 bags of nickels, return them in one) so that way I do have a small stock of bags (I think atm I have 3), just in case the one they provide rips or isn't good. The cents I get are usually in plastic, sometimes those can't be re-used well, so I'll put them back in a canvas then. But yeah, generally just return them in the bag and let the bank use it again, they appreciate that, so anything I can do to make their lives easier makes my own as well.
