I've had zero luck with dimes too. After 20+ boxes and not one single silver, I gave up. I see a lot of people post that they get one or two per box on average, maybe my local brinks is pulling them. I've had a little better luck with CWR's.
@reddirtcoins: Do you find it worth it to get one silver out of three boxes on average? Just seems like a lot of work for $2.00 in silver. Pick up boxes at bank, unroll, run through rydale, take back to bank the next day, deposit.

I live in mtn home ar and had crap on the boxes. But I took a trip up to Springfield mo and got $100 in brinks plastic wrapped coins and found one in that.. 2 hour drive to Springfield to do dimes is definitely not worth it but I guess where you are has a lot to do with your luck. Probably gonna pick up a bag of dimes and try that.. Or halves. But being in a small town means no one has halves and everyone tells me no when I ask them to order them for me

Hang in there. Friendliness and persistence does pay off. Good luck.

Last week it was 22 in 4 boxes of dimes. This week, no dimes.
Makes sense right?
18 toz last week, mostly halves, and 12 toz so far this week, all halves. It is all good, buddy.
