Actually, this week was my first ever dime box that I CRH'ed. Have not done a box of quarters yet. Been through about half the box of dimes so far and nothing of value. Going to keep ordering more though, so I can give a better answer in a few weeks. From what I've heard/seen from others though, dimes can be pretty sparse. Quarters even more so. Their out there though, so I'll keep looking <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.</p><p>2) Unfortunately we can't get banks to order us halves. Real bummer lol.</p><p>3) For nickels I am mostly looking for nickels with 99.9% nickel composition. These are the most common ones with value. I do keep all 12-sided ones, chromes/tombac, and any older one I find. These are kept separate from the larger hoard though.

This makes from some interesting videos <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Our average is about 40% for the copper pennies, and 10% for the nickel nickels.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again for stopping by.
