Picked up $450 worth of CWR dimes from a new bank yesterday. These rolls looked as old as dirt! Pulled four keepers:

1941 Mercury :hello2:
1947 Roosevelt
1952D Roosevelt
1958 Roosevelt

Plus, I found a 1963 Roosevelt in a reject tray when I was dumping halves.

Snagged myself five silvers! Makes a man feel good after a few weeks of nothing or very little.

Pulling that Merc was fantastic, just an epic end to the night!

Congrats on the Merc! Always a great find! :headbang:
 

yea i love finding those things, glad you finally did!
 

I swear this forum is making me want to pick up a few boxes of dimes each week to find some silver. Great finds and good luck in your searching from here!
 

Thanks, guys! I was so amped up from finding that Merc, it took me forever to fall asleep last night.
 

awesome
keep at it.
 

Nice merc, they are few and far between!

I just counted my stash, got about 1 merc for every 5 roosevelt dimes. pretty good ratio I think compared to what I've heard from others on here. I wonder how many I miss side checking, some of em are pretty worn. One I definitely would've missed, but saw it as I was scoping out a dirty sided roosevelt.

That's about my ratio, too; although I'm pretty new to the game. I have three or four dirty Roos that I wouldn't have caught by edge checking.
 

Nice man there small but sweet!!
 

Congrats on crossing off one of your goals. My goals are pretty close to yours. Good luck on getting those halves!
