Too many coins for me to address all of them individually - but some general comments that have not yet been covered: All of the quarters are well-circulated common dates and as stated prior worth silver spot. The Buffalo nickels with dates have a slight numismatic premium but are all common date issues. The dateless Buffalo many of us spend as they have no value beyond face. In 1939 certain Jefferson nickels exhibit a clear Doubled Die reverse variety that indeed carries a premium value. I can't tell by your photos but Google 1939 DDR Jefferson to see the diagnostics and compare to your coins. The Ellis Island commemorative dollar is the most common of all modern US commemorative coins - but is 90% silver so at least it has spot silver value. The 1962 Jefferson is an immediate spender. Best of wishes with whatever you have left.

Quote: Too many coins for me to address all of them individually - but some general comments that have not yet been covered: Thank you for all of the information. I wasn't expecting any huge value since I know that all of the roll coins and loose coins came from general circulation. In fact, I got quite a few of the coins at my night job working a cash register. I will keep everything and it will go to my kids along with my collection. Thanks again.

 There were quite a few (20 to 30) uncirculated sets in the box. It's difficult to get decent pictures of sets because of the glare on the plastic. I like the Eisenhower dollar but from what I've read the ones that come in the sets are copper clad in nickel. It is still a nice looking coin.

Quote: Just for the record, JBuck is an Ike fanatic. I'll keep that in mind.  I like the Eisenhower dollars and wouldn't mind picking up a few of the 40% silver that are not so expensive. APMEX has a Mint Sealed 1974-S for $21.

Very nice! But be careful, Ikes can be addictive.
