1 box of halves---1991-S impaired proof with a smooth edge, this coin looks as if it was ran thru a slot machine for years.

1 box of dimes--no silver, but I did find a 1993 10 centavos from Argentina.

Went in to order a box of halves and the main teller said they had 100 dollars worth a customer had brought in...my eyes popped when they set that coin lok bag on the counter in front of me....and the clink of silver was unmistakable I could see 2 franklins right off the bat well I waited until the kids got home from school to cut the bag open and sort with the kids (our last 4 halves boxes were skunks so they needed a good bag like this to keep em interested ) The results:
45 40%
30 90%
Heres the breakdown on the 90%ers..
1 VF/EF 1925 Stone Mountain Commem
5 Walkers (worn 40s)
15 Franklins (best choice bu 1951)
9 1964 JFKs
Unbelievable! but true!Im back in for halves!Keep on searchin!

I'm confused, as usual. I thought all nickels of this date range have the mint mark on them. Does your MM's refer to something other than Mint Mark?

Thanks.

Hmm, might have included the 2002's, I will have to look when I got the chance, I didn't spend too much time with them. I got a lot of coins to deal with and not much time to dawdle. An error obiously but I have to look to find out what I was thinking. Something in the new batch didn't (have MM's) and there were coins on either side of that range I kept. They were really nice for some reason, amazingly bright.

I keep new rolls from the bank and they don't look this good.

280 dollars in CW dimes from Wells Fargo. One 1958 silver Roosie, one 1968 Canadian.

1968 Canadian dimes can be Nickel or 50% SILVER. I am assuming yours passed the magnet test.
