Pretty old boxes that have been sitting around for some time...too bad they weren't better.
BIG CONGRATS, Country...you were due for a good one!!! By my calcs that's 19 troy oz!!!
I can only dream about picking up (37) 90% JFK's in one box...my goal for 2010 was (45) of those.
Take care,
Jeff
Thanks... You never know, maybe a super box is coming your way soon.  |

Other found - one -- 1/1979 in a strong AU+ condition (kept for sentimental reasons as that was the year I was married)
Other stats: One roll over by 10 cents, two rolls shorted by 10 cents each
Overage/shortage total: Shorted 10 cents 
Country, I appreciate the job you are doing with this project. I hate to ask, but could you please readdress the overage/shortage total for my dimes on page one of February. I had a shortage total of 9 cents since the one penny replaced a dime and you had my total shortage stats ending in a zero so something must have been missed. If I wasn't clear on that posting, I do apologize. Thanks.
Enjoy your coin searches, everyone. 
The shortages for dimes would always be an even dime amount. The extra penny went as a credit to you in the Loose Change Tally. |

Because I was locked out for the weekend, I wasn't able to report my weekend searches. Here they are now.
No silver in close to $30 in halves from different banks. One teller thought that a few might be silver, so I happily accepted. Some of them did resemble silver halves, but they were all skunks. No NIFC's either.
In order to comply with my self-made regulation of how many posts I will do, I am going to consolidate my reports to around once or twice a week instead of almost every day. |

$1,000.00 Dimes (4 boxes).
Details:
Box #1 - SKUNK
Box #2 - SKUNK
Box #3 - (3) 90% Silver Roosevelts - 52, 54S, 64
Box #4 - (1) 90% Silver Mercury - 34 + (2) 90% Silver Roosevelts - 64, 64D
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOTAL for the (4) boxes = (6) Silvers
Notes - The 1954-S silver Roosevelt was an AU+ quality coin, but unfortunately had a small rim nick at about the 2 o'clock position on the obverse. This was our first S-mint silver Roosevelt of the year out of a total of 22 silver dimes pulled. The 1934 Mercury was our first merc from rolls.

Very nice Silky! I like seeing that there are boxes out there.
"wonder boxes"
If you don't look, you won't get them.
Dimes are so hard for me and I really need them for my collection.
I hate buying coins for the collection and will someday focus on dimes.
Like hearing about the details of your find as well.
Happy hunting!

| Zerocd, just rim search dimes. They are hard for me to to also, but I now just rim search and have supprisingly started finding few. I know there is a chance I may miss one but saves on the old eyes after looking at a computer screen all day. |

I could not do the dismes you do, bro.
Though I'd like to add dimes to my collection (I only have like 7), I don't have the patience or stomach for the per box payout on the little fellers. |
