Thanks, aristarchus!

I am very persistent!

And here's that 1964-D I found in the 30 rolls bought at my nearby bank...

Thanks,T-BOP!

I'm guessing they may have been part of a hoard of coins someone turned in at one of my local banks. I found out that someone had turned in a bunch of coins (cents, nickels, dimes, quarters) to my goto bank by there a couple of weeks earlier. By the time I got there, all they had left were 58 bankwrapped rolls of cents. Yes, I may have missed out on something really huge, but what can you do?

As for the cents, they were in old style bank wrappers, and nothing was dated after 1974. I found 44 wheats and a couple of BU rolls of 1973-D and 1974-D cents. Still sorting through them and hoping for a 1970-S small date to turn up. I'll post about them at a future date.

Amazing finds. Silver quarters are so hard to find in roll searching or change.

Yes, they were, JonNickelCollector. And without my friend's tip, I would've had no clue.

Thanks, cabowabo! I'm pretty well-known for my persistency!

By the way, in case you guys don't know/remember, I hit a Coinstar silver quarter/dime motherlode two mornings before Christmas last year... http://goccf.com/t/128850&whichpage=161#2595953

As much as I loved this find, that one certainly took the cake!
