I found a 1967 Canadian Dime in a roll today! I love the Canadian centennial coinage, so I was pumped.
It was a Canadian penny roll, fyi.

Welcome to the club! Computer Jones, patient they are there. You'll find one.

| Congratulations, I have never found a silver dime mixed in with the cents. Were the Canadian cents older, newer or a variety of each? |

I always hand sort my Canadian cents since it is about 35% goods and gives me constant satisfaction :)
My method is to take some Tupperware bins and unroll rolls into them until they are full. Then, I sort through the bin.
The bin where I found the silver dime was extremely good even without the dime. Lots of wheat pennies, several "Young Queens", a couple rock doves, and a couple Kings. Also, that bin tended to have a high overall level of United States cents, most of which were copper. |
