WELCOME!!!

I'll include your totals into the great state of Texas...

1968 Canadian dimes were minted in two alloys: 50% SILVER and a steel (92% steel, 5.5% copper, and 2.5% nickel coating) alloy. Take a magnet and see if your dime sticks to the magnet. If it doesn't, it's 50% SILVER.... If it does, it's the steel 1968 dime.

When it comes to tracking in this thread, your home state is the one I use. It gets too complicated to track multiple states for one searcher. So, if Texas is the one for you, that is where your finds will be.

Thanks Country, that's what I thought, but I just couldn't remember for sure. I crossed my fingers and put my magnet near it and......nothing happened!
