I was able to pick up a $250 box of dimes at one of my local branches to search through. I thought it would be fun if you all tried to guess how many silver dimes I'll find when I search it. I'm not going to be able to open it until later today, so you'll at least have a day to make your guesses before I search through it and publish the results on here and my blog!

Maybe I'll do this in the future with the winner getting the silvers..... :icon_thumright:

I am going to guess no silver, a 1968 non-silver canadian dime, a plastic play money dime that will take up the space of 2 dimes, 3 grounded down zincolns and a washer.
Just from my personal experiences with dimes..
 

fish on!

Did you look through the holes yet? If not, I'm going to guess solid 2013's because that has been my recent experience with dimes.

Fish on took my guess- ive stopped dimes recently because of way too many new ones

The grocery store by my house has all new dimes I'm the change dispensers, I think you'll end up with 1 silver Rosie, 1 canadian, and one 5 pence coin.

Well -- here are the results!

1 Silver -- 1957 Silver Rosie..but soo dirty. My guess is that it's a metal detecting find or at least spent some good time in the dirt.

Almost missed the thing while edge hunting.

Maybe next time I'll give the coins I find to the correct guesser! What do you guys think of that?

Thanks to everyone who guessed on here and my blog!
