Todays Box of Dimes - Ender!

Today's Box of Dimes - Ender!

So today I was trying to decide whether to pickup a box of dimes or a box of halves. I decided to go with the dimes because I'm going christmas shopping tomorrow and needed to at least keep some money in my wallet. :P

Anyways, it was a Strings and Sons box with the holes on the top. Had a code on the bottom but I'm not really sure what to look for in codes. Looked through the holes but didn't really see anything. Flipped the box over and opened it up. Looked at the ends and there staring me in the face was a Mercury Face! The first mercury i've found in the wild. :P Not to mention an Ender. Strange enough, that same roll had a 5 pence coin in it. :P

So went through the rest of the box but sadly no more silver.

End results:

1 - 1943D Mercury
5 - Canadian Dimes (No Silver)
1 - 1992 5 Pence

Trying to decide whether to toss the merc into the silver pile or card it. It doesn't appear to be in too bad of shape for a circulated one. Bit dirty but that's to be expected.

Congrats on the Mercury especially an ender that is very cool!

I see alot of those 5 pence as well, usually in the brinks clear wrapped dimes. In the CWR i usually get Mexican ones & sometimes other S.A. countries, occassionally carribean.

Congrats on an exciting find!

If it was me, I would put in with the silver pile. Just wait till you find a nice Merc, you'll look at this and say why did I card that one I have done that many times. Just my two cents.
