does anyone have reference for which to watch for and which have various silver or is only pre '64? Scott
I only save pre 65, that would be 64 and older.
If you do dimes ,do them by the box ,you almost always get silver.But I did 2 boxes a few weeks ago that were both skunks(did get 4 2009 P),but that's rare for me.I've found silver Mercury & Rosie dimes anywhere from 1-20 per box,but avg 2-8 per.Silver dimes are 1964 and before.I've read on other forums of people finding Barber & Seated dimes also.
The other forum I'm on alot of people do Dimes and find quite a few.Quarters not so much people do them but get more skunks then keepers.Also alot of folks do nickels. During WW II they were 40% silver,they also finds Buffs and once in a while V nickels.I myself do alot of pennies(6 boxes) , halves,and about (1-2 boxes of dimes) a week.And cut back when the weather is good to MD.
