SO on the way home from school, i decided to pick up a box of dimes and a box of pennies. When i got to the bank the tellers checked their stock and said they cant give me a box of pennies, but can give a box of dimes. I went home and went through it, with my almost 3 year old daughter. She loves ripping things, anything around the house with a label. It is gone, especially water bottles/soda bottles. The first came from my daughter's small bowl that she uses to dump the coins after taking them out of the roll. a 1937 Merc. Half way in the box, I get a lightly scuffed 1964 rossie. Down to the last 6 or 8 rolls I get this WOWzer. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Im grading it a AU, but what do you guys think?

Certainly in EF+ condition, great find and a real ""keeper".
 
It would be considered impaired, but I'm pretty sure that's a proof. Great find!
 
Quite the eye-catcher! Lucky you, great little score.

That's awesome!!! Congrats!!!
 
Yeah, On a side note, the last two boxes of dimes produced ZERO 2009D dimes.... WTF? Anyone on the west Coast or central finding 2009D dimes?
 
Very nice, what you found was a 1964 proof dime!

Majority (80% +/-) of my 2009 dimes are D's, have roughly about one box of rolls 'D's made up. The "P's" are much harder to come by.

Where are you located dozer? I usually find 3-6 2009P dimes a box, but barely 1 per box for the D. I find lots of the other D mint 2000-14 coins...
