Skunked on 1st Dime Box

[TheProf]

I was ordering my 2 boxes of halves today and decided to try a box of dimes today. $250.00 and nothing! I did have a scare I saw silver on one of the ridges, it ended up being a Canadian dime!
Until next week...

Some Canadian dimes are silver. What was the year?

Sorry to hear that, Prof! Maybe Mary Ann or Ginger could help, lol! Seriously, volume is the key to dime hunting, here in MI we get about 20 slug Canadians to a box, I've found about 15 keeper Canadians this year so far.

Canadian dime is 1975.

Yeah I've had that happen too. I've pulled 1 silver Canadian dime 1961 and 4 or 5 clad Canadian dimes.

my first box of dimes was a skunk too, although that was a while back. Heck, one of the three boxes of dimes i did today turned out to be a skunk!
