I think that's correct. I generally use a 2-step approach. First, the harsh 50/50 to find a date and/or mm. If it's one I need, then I do the...
I haven't come across one in a few months. I keep making change...but no luck.
I tend to be impatient, so I go with a 50/50 mix and watch it closely. The advantage with pure vinegar or mostly vinegar solution is that the...
The 2009 nickel is a fun one to catch in change. It's only happened a few times...only twice when it came to 2009 P dimes. Fairly infrequent...

1971p1do002 Die Variety Information - coppercoins.com Fun find Larry!!
I've never found a planchet during a CRH event. Found what I thought was a planchet (briefly), but soon noticed it was smaller and underweight....
Rabid maybe...
I'm only about 850 boxes behind...so what you are saying is that I'm 'due' at least 1 in the next box or so. I'll get that order in this weekend...
