Went through 2-dime boxes yesterday. Almost two skunks, but near the end of box one was a badly worn 1925 Merc, and while as I was nearly finishing box two, shows a very bright white rim. I'm thinking a good looking 1964? No! Too my surprise was a silver 2009-S proof dime. I know for a fact that the mint does not run silver dimes separate like they do State Quarters, ie the 5-silver state quarter sets(1999-2009). So, someone in the life of this silver proof has opened-up a complete silver proof set, took out what they wanted and disposed of the silver dime. Or they completely opened the set and spent the coins as change.
•••••What a waste of a good proof coin/set.••••••
The proof dime shows some grime etc., but it's still silver to stack. This is the second silver proof dime I've found in the wild over the past two years. The other was a1985-s, I think.
Anyone else find broken silver proof set singles?, other than the half-dollars that we hear so much about.
