That is amazing!!
The most dimes I ever found was 22. Keep on hitting them up for penny bags before they fix the machine!

But how many "silver" dimes have you gotten? They are even rarer than Indians. I have only gotten 3 so far.. 2 last year and 1 this year.

I've gotten 5 dimes at most during a single sorting session of customer wrapped rolls, but quarters? Nickels?

Lucky you!

How can a counting machine include quarters in penny bags when a quarter is bigger than a penny? I can understand dimes, but quarters???
