...for the worse. Worst week I've had on dimes that aren't new.

$1250 in Dimes (5 boxes)
Box1: All Clad
Box2: 1946D, 1961D
Box3: All Clad
Box4: All Clad
Box5: 1965 Canadian (80%)

Brings my dime average to 297 silvers from 208.5 boxes. 1.424/box

Thats a bummer. I went through 3 boxes of dimes last weekend and was skunked on all three. One was solid 2011.

that's still not bad, 3 silvers per 5 boxes, but definately discouraging, think of it this way, it was better than a whole skunk!

Do you count the Canadians as part of the "silver numbers?"

and this weekend going to honey hole bank ( 42 40% and two weeks later 12 40% )

Maybe you should make your honey-hole bank your normal pick up bank. Take some dimes this time, too. Maybe you'll find a merc.

Only if they are silver. This 1965 happens to be 80% silver, so it counts.

Yes, that's what I meant.
