3 Boxes of 50 cent pieces and noooothing... except a 2012...
Got a box of dimes when cashing everything back in (already got skunked on 2 boxes of dimes this week). But it seems pretty damn good! I want to go buy the rest they have haha
The roughed up Mercury is 1919! Other is 1936, but seems in great condition. And the 3rd mercury... well! I dont know because someone cut it in half?!

Apparently not. I have tried posting like 5 times with a pic and it keeps freezing the browser.

The cut edge is the same dark tone as the rest of the coin/edge. Crazy that they can come in a sealed roll/box like that O.O

got it to post!
 
Cool! I wonder how it got into a machine wrapped roll anyway, usually coin machines reject anything unusual, and this coin is very unusual! Thanks again for posting the pictures.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you think that more properly belongs on a nickle thread?

LOL! It took me a good 30 seconds before I got that =P
 
After the last box I had to go n get another =P
I was bummed until the second to last roll! Nothin compared to first box, but I got one 1960
 
Is there a mint mark on the 1919?
 
I also am wondering this, if its a D then you just stepped into the big bucks!
Sure is! If that coin is in at least F-12 condition, it's worth around $12 :headbang:

Just havin fun KC; I think you may have meant the 1916 D mercury dime.

Of course not! As anyone can clearly see it still has nearly 6-1/2 cents worth of metal remaining. Nickels indeed! Hmmpphh!!!
