I once asked my bank about halves and I learned that they could be ordered for me but none were kept at the branches.</p><p><br /></p><p>The same is actually true of silver dimes. I mentioned just the other day that I have found only three over the past year, two Roosies and one Merc.</p><p><br /></p><p>My wife has a friend whose husband likes to save dimes... he just likes them, that&#039;s all, no numismatic interest at all. Last Thursday my wife brought me one of his old 3 pound coffee cans filled with nothing but dimes; she said that I was to look through these for any that I wanted and just replace them at face value for any I found. No cigar, not a single pre-1965 dime in the whole lot.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think where one lives is important to finding vintage coins in circulation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
