Continue reading ONLY if you believe dreams still happen, even with DIMES.
Went Saturday 1/28 to two of my branch banks that I hit every other week. The first bank did not have a MWR box, but had $300 of CWR's, that produced only 3-Canadian silvers.
Second bank had a MWR box of dimes. Did not open the box until late at night, nor did I look for Enders cuz I never expect to see anything. The very first roll that I checked, was floored by seeing so many DARK GRAY silver rims. I figured most likely maybe Merc's & Rosie's. Sure enough, had 10-silvers in the very first roll.(pic of roll wrapper opened showing the 10). I was then thinking, could this silver trend continue throughout this box. Second roll nothing. Then the excitement started, from there on, on a hit & miss basis, silver started to flow, mostly of Merc's. The rims were much darker gray than the Rosie's. There were only 17 rolls of the 50 that produced silver, of which 3 of the 17 gave up only one. I never in my life expected to find so much silver dimes in each of these rolls, let alone throughout the entire box. Half way in the box I finally looked at what I saw were two Merc Enders, (but how do we call them: Mercers or Endcury's). I was on such a high that it took hours for me to settle down, so I took some pics of what I think is my DREAM BOX that finally arrived. Total count was: 33-rosies & 65-Merc's, for grand total of 98-silver dimes, for total of 7.01 ounces. This is about one-fourth of all the silver I found last year. I always believed you guys that hit dream boxes & solid rolls, now it was my turn. If you notice on the detail 17-roll list, most of the mercs were in the 40's. I don't think that this was from a collection, otherwise it would have had a broader range of dates & mint marks. I feel that it may have been from an accumulation of silver coins from a coffee can etc that finally got dumped. I hope to go back to that branch bank to see if the have another box to sell. For so many Merc's to appear in several rolls, as you can see on the list, gives indication that it could have been a very LARGE dump of silver that made its way into the coin rolling machine hopper. (one of our fellow CRH's: Lui21 could attest to this process since he worked for a coin processor). I hope my pics are enough evidence that silver is still out there, that DREAMS do come through sometimes, and that you do believe me. Enjoy the pics from only ONE BOX OF MWR's from a bank; HH, DozerD.
Now to get myself off the ceiling, and back to reality.
