Visit from Copper Santa

Two weeks ago I picked up all the customer wrapped dime rolls I could get in hopes that I would have an encounter with Silver Santa. I've been way too busy to sort coins so two bags full of dime rolls have been sitting atop my mountain of unsorted cents waiting until this weekend. So far in the first $200 worth of dimes there has been no sign of silver but stuffed inside one roll was a 1967 Lincoln cent. Thank you Copper Santa. :lol:

I suppose that's better than getting an entire roll of pennies.. mostly zinc.. stuffed in a dime wrapper. :mrgreen:
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more

That would have to be the Zinc Grinch. I'll try to avoid that one for sure.

Finally got some silver in the end. Two silver Roosevelt dimes out of $585 total CWRs.
