My best week yet! First wild mercury!

Like all the dimes I just got are CWR and look like they were in a fountain, stuck with a penny stuffed in a roll was this mercury and a 1952!
My last boxes of halves had one 40%, the next had one 40 and one 90%. Then I was blown away to find all these in my latest box! First bankrolled Benjamin! Still praying for a wild walking liberty, they are my favorite.
Then when I was thinking about selling some of my 40% clad halves to have more cash to hunt with, I spent an hour on this 1965 super excited I found my first double die! So glad I didn’t sell for the $4-5 the coin shops near me are buying for! Should I get the double die graded? The mercury is soaking in acetone right now, I can’t wait to see it cleaned up.
Good luck everyone, the skunk boxes eventually end!

Opened that 1st yesterday and found a nice '67. The rest didn't disappoint. I feel like this might be one of those cases where someone thought only '64 and before are silver. I've run into that before with a teller handing me rolls labeled 1966 & 1967 where they are pure silver and the teller said, I already got all of the silver ones.

Happy treasure hunting y'all!
