<p>[QUOTE="bugo, post: 1921447, member: 53226"]I still haven't found a Mercury in circulation. I've found steel pennies. Indian head pennies, a 1912 V nickel, buffalo nickels, war nickels, 35 or more silver dimes (I lost count at 32), silver quarters including a 1976-S bicentennial 40% silver business strike (the only 40% quarter ever minted), Franklin halves, several 40% halves, an 1861 British half penny, several Series 1957x silver certificates, a $5 United States Note. The Mercury dime is elusive and I still haven't come across one. A coworker did find one for me and I paid him the standard finder's fee of $5 (the dime wasn't technically worth it, but I appreciated the fact that he put it back for me. The same guy found me a 1959 half dollar and I gave him the same $5 finder's fee, so I made ahead on that one.) I don't plan on staying at this job much longer, so the Mercury dime might elude me forever.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
