Todays 16 Boxes of Dimes

Today's 16 Boxes of Dimes

Searched 16 boxes of dimes today,two of which were skunk boxes.
I've never searched this amount before at one time.
Here's the take
1x Merc
1x 80% Canadian
26x Rosies
4 keepers was the most I got in one box.
It was worth trying once, but I doubt I will do this amount again. Very time consuming, and hard on the eyes.

That is a lot of dimes. You got some keepers. My eyes can only take 1 box of dimes per week.

Good score Rich , I have to agree with apush my eyes can only take about 1 or 2 boxes a week.
I bet you have slight headache after searching that many.

Nice little score there Mr. Hartford!

I can't wait for the weather to cool a bit and I can get out and dig some Mercs myself. I tried to start a bit early this year, but found out that a heat index over 100 is just a little too much for a slightly overweight (and VERY out of shape) 40 year old Arkie.

I did $300.00 in dimes two week-ends ago because I couldn't find any halves and I already done my weekly box. I damn near went blind, had to get my loop several times to read the date on the items that looked like they had a silver rim.

It is hell getting old....

Good score on the silver and kudo's on the tenacity to do that much.

I did 5 hours straight, took a break, and did another hour or two.

Man, you are a dime marathon trooper! Cool scores none the less! I am curious, though, will you be re-rolling them all? That's another day right there!

I'll be dumping them all in a fast,and accurate coin counter,that eats up the dimes quickly.
