That is ridiculous. I can understand saying that you'd prefer not having searched the box at all if you knew there was only 1 dime in it, but if you're going to search the box anyway, who in their right mind would rather a skunk than a silver dime?

I have plenty of skunks to hand off to you if your interested in them. I keep all the silver, you keep the clad.

Finished my first bag of dimes last night (1K) and found two keepers. Silver is a bit hard to come by around here, too.

For me, I am happy to find at least one keeper. :icon_sunny:

HAHA.. I average one keeper per dime box.. so finding one is about average.. we're definitely getting a lot of newbies.

the GOAL is to find silver. SO, you are saying you would rather have NO success than SOME success.

There's nothing to say to that ...

the one thing to say to that, is send me that lone crummy dime. How would want it anyway. Now you just have to start a pile of those no good dimes. I will save you the trouble, It will be a big inconvenience but I will get rid of it for you. PM me

This is why this hobby will never be overrun. Some folks just cant cut it and expect it all to be easy. Ive been averaging 1 silver dime per 4 boxes searched all year. I have 24 or so silver dimes for the year so you can do the math. Maybe collecting coupons on sunday morning would be more to your liking. I guarantee you will find lots of them!
