<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 188408, member: 4626&quot;]Kind of a once in a blue moon thing, but when I worked as a cashier at Sam&#039;s Club, it seems that silver dimes showed up a lot more than you&#039;d expect.&nbsp; Over the course of about a year, I found about 14 silver dimes... sounds like a lot, but this is a year working almost full time at a very high volume membership warehouse, so we&#039;re not even talking 1% here.&nbsp; One of them was even a Mercury dime.&nbsp; During that same year, I also found a silver wartime nickel, and a buffalo nickel right out of the bank roll (it&#039;s in better condition than another I paid $5 for lol, and this one only cost me 5 cents!).&nbsp; Quite a lot of foreign coins got mixed in with US change too.</p><p><br /></p><p>Seeing other people posting about it, ocassionally I&#039;d get my bank to order a box of half dollars, just to see what I&#039;d find.&nbsp; In the average $500 box I&#039;d find maybe about 5 or 6 silver half dollars, so figure an average succes rate of about 0.5%.&nbsp; Not a lot, but it&#039;s fun to do on ocassion.&nbsp; Usually don&#039;t have the cashflow handy to have $500 tied up in a box of half dollars but I try to do it on ocassion; the ones I don&#039;t keep I deposit at a different bank.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
