  Got a silver dime from a vending machine about a year ago.

  I got a 1964 quarter in change at Cinnabon 2 weekends ago. As she put the 4 or 5 coins of change in my hand I heard the difference right away.
  
  Mmmm Cinnabon.

  In 500 years, that silver dime might pay
  
  for a new car.

  There once was a place called
  Camelot

  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.
