Got a silver dime from a vending machine about a year ago.
"Men who had never shown any ability to make or increase fortunes for themselves abounded in brilliant plans for creating and increasing wealth for the country at large." Fiat Money Inflation in France, Andrew Dickson White (1912)
It is tought to find dimes and quarters compared to Silver halves, I've only found 3 Silver dimes and 4 Silver quarters searching rolls or getting change over the years but have found over 800-40% halves and nearly 300 90% halves.
I can't believe this but I just returned home from the gas station where I picked up a 20 oz sunkist. 30 seconds ago while reading the forum here I pulled the change out of my pocket, 1957 dime. I couldn't believe it given this thread was just started lol. Last silver I received was in a coke machine at Kroger's last summer, Actually I received a silver quarter from the machine and another from inside the store that day.
I also won $28 on the two scratch offs I purchased.
