UN Flipping Return Tripping Believable

I know that one of the golden rules is that any time someone finds a solid roll they are always told to go back and buy them all. I thought about it after last weeks 3 rolls of dimes but with work and all the coins that I had ordered I just didn't have the time. Today I drove back to the same town to make my regular dump and just made it to the other bank which closes an hour earlier. The same Teller was there, she works at my Hometown's bank regularly and only works out at this other one to fill in on Saturdays. I asked her again for as much as she could spare and got 196 in dimes (160) and nickels (36). As we drove off, I told my wife to see if there were any dark green wrappers in the box and she pulled one out. When I opened it, driving, I could see a silver reverse and dumped half the roll into my hand. Another (almost) solid roll! I checked the one other wrapper that was the same kind but it was clad. At home it turned out to be 48 Roosevelts and 2 67 clads. Maybe on Monday I will go in and talk to her and ask her if she has any of the dark green wrappers in her quarters. Boy, Banking is fun.

Quarters will be Orange. They are color coded.

Red for Cents
Blue for Nickels
Green for Dimes
Orange for Quarters
Yellow for halves
Brown for dollar coins

If I recall correctly.

The quarter wrappers from this era are indeed an orange-ish color

Thanks EE, I guess I know that but, my brain was kind of still spinning when I was writing. Stopped at two other banks so I have almost 500 more in CRW's to still go through.

67 dimes are not silver clad. No silver in dimes after 64. Only halves were 40% until 1970

May be wrong but he never said anything about silver clad..

The OP didn't say they were silver clad, only clad.

I'm sorry if my writing somehow confused you, I thought the (almost) and the picture of 6 rows of eight would cover it but... the 2 67's were clad and you are correct there is no silver in them.

Also there are the 40% 1976ers as well as 90% silver proofs after 1970. HH

One of the pictured silver dimes is a 1968, not silver. It clearly stood out.

IT makes the picture look more impressive.

Halves are more brown, and dollar coins are white.

Sure there are silver dimes after 1964. They started again in 1992. I've found a few roll hunting.
You must also include 40% halves for 1970.

I surely do believe, you hit jackpot again Minky!

nice cache of dimes Minky!

Yeah, your right as always Sag, just pulled it out, thanks. The other 3 rolls last week were 49, 48, and 46, and now this one is 47.

Wow you people are a bunch of bashers with huge chips on your shoulders or something. Now I remember why I don't like this site. I just misread it and thought he was keeping to 67 and it wouldn't be the first time I've seen someone thing other coinage was silver clad from 65 to 70.

Dude, your "bunch of bashers" was two members who politely pointed out that you had mistaken the meaning of what was written and nothing more. A big step in growing up is learning to accept the fact that we will not always be right about everything all the time. So you made a mistake, same as I did and Sagittarius98 pointed out about the 68 dime, everyone does and no one is perfect. Try learning from your mistakes instead of blaming them on the world and maybe you might enjoy this site more and also find out that all those huge chips on others shoulders were just some useless baggage you were carrying around yourself. But then I don't know, I could be wrong. Good luck to you and HH.

"Until" includes a date. It said "until 1970."

Nice score again, Minky! '68 or no '68, it's still a beautiful pic.
