Another wild night and another nice penny bag! Yes, that is right I was searching a $50 bag of loose pennies. The dimes were in darn near every scoop and the two silver ones made a nice bonus. I still can't get over how these get out the door! |

That was one exciting search!!! Awesome. Super Congrats on all the dimes, especially the silver ones.
Continued success. |

Bags can be full of surprises. I have not got any silver dimes in a penny bag. I did get a Presidential Dollar once. |

I thought I was big time when I found seven clads in about fifty CWR's. |

The most I have ever found is a couple of dollars in dimes in a $25 box. Nice score with the $20 and the silver |

Thanks for all the comments everyone! It is fun to break up the regular sorting and find different stuff. |

I had a bag with three nickles, one dime, and one quarter. I thought that was a bit odd. Yesterday I went to a bank and asked for a loose bag of $50.00 in pennies. They said they could not sell loose pennies, but put $50.00 in rolls into a fairly new bank bag big enough to use as a body bag. The bag was from another bank. They were giving away someone else's bag. But, I am happy. Not quite sure what to do with it. Any suggestions? |

Most tellers would overlook something like this because the bank paid for the value of the pennies, not the dimes. If a few slip past, no loss. The only reason to hold these bags from a paying customer would be greed. It's probably not worth their effort. |

Hope you find a few more bags like that one. Congratulations! You are no part of a pretty exclusive club.. those that have found silver dimes in their penny sorts.
The way those get in there is counting machines that have not been properly maintained and are running a little sloppy. This is whey some members will not dump dimes in lobby counting machines. Somtimes the dimes get counted as a penny. |
