I got the battery...and a 64?

[maine_Jim]

Picked up a few rolls of dimes today. Got a box (skunk) and $30 in customer rolled dimes. In one of the customer rolls I found my first watch battery but in the same roll out pops a 64 . The roll was four dimes short but I guess I made out ok. Haven't check to see if the battery was any good. Also grabbed ten nickel rolls and one had a war nickel on the end...should have taken a photo but didn't have the patience to wait to get home to the camera.

Don't feel too bad about 4 dimes short. I just picked up 10 rolls of dimes at one bank Friday and one roll had only 40 dimes. Tell me how a teller doesn't notice that??

Only reason I didn't was that I had 10 rolls of dimes and 10 rolls of nickels all in a heap and simply didn't notice.

Nasty short rolls!

Wish I pulled silver out of all of the rolls that I was shorted on! =)

Grats on the 64 dime.

And that war nick!

One one saving grace from my 40-dime roll was that one was a 2007-RCM Canadian dime, which I had not found yet. Eh, you take the good with the bad. So I'm a dollar short, who cares? You basically gain a dollar each time you pull a single silver dime so it always works out in my favor in the end.

Last week I found a penny that had been cut to the size of a dime. Hmmm... now that I think about it doing that would probably net you about 9 cents, as the coin counter obviously throws it in the dime bag. Perhaps I've stumbled upon a coin defacing conspiracy? Ok but seriously I hate the canadian dimes the most because I always think I've found silver only to be dissappointed.

A watch battery? LOL.....and it was in a hand rolled? Probably not an accident
