How is the differance between a dime and penny?

[utahshovelhead]

On the E trac a penny and silver dime are way darn close to each other with just enough difference if you pay attention, with the Explorer line the silve dime would stand out easily from a penny.
How is it with the new 3030?

The "12 FE line" used in the ETRAC is also used on the CTX 3030. Therefore, the TID readings of the ETRAC are similar to those on the CTX 3030. You can view a coin chart over on the CTX Resource Forum, which can be linked by clicking on the Resource banner near the top of this forum, along side the dealer banners. HH Randy

I would not rely too much on the CO # for silver dimes, I have found worn seated dimes as low as CO 34 and slightly worn silver dimes will read the same as a copper cent but yes, a full rim silver dime will read slightly higher than a copper cent. Being too selective will cost you silver IMHO.

Still to close for me.
I use to like the Explorer because Silver would go to the upper right corner.
