Well I haven't had time to finish the box yet, but here are the silver canadian quarters I pulled out of the box a few days ago. This is my best score from quarters to date. I am not in canada either for those wondering, I am outside of Buffalo NY, no I don't get a ton of canadian silver, but yes I do see my fair share of their coins. The scans I have here might not be the greatest but they are better then nothing. This makes a total herd of 8 silver caribou in my collection. Hmmm 8 just like santa, now if I can only find the quarter with a red nose.... Obverses (50% silver in bottom right 1968)  Reverses Dates left to right 39,55,40,55,57,68

Bought 8 rolls of quarters on Sat and found a 63D. This after approx 75 rolls. I usually use the rolls to fill holes, especially the parks and territories, but happy with the bonus. As second bonus, one day later received a 51D Roosevelt in change. The look, feel and sound of a silver coin is quite different than clad. Does anybody have an idea of the quantity of dimes and quarters still in circulation?

Well I know its a lot smaller than it used to be, however there are still people hoarding their caches or they dont even know about them.

yeah the 68 isn't magnetic. I could tell by the look and sound of it as I poured it out of the roll that it was silver I was very pleased. Lotta people having some luck. I'm glad. I think quarters are a lot of fun to search

Nice Canadians Goo! Today, out of the ordinary, I bought $700 cwr quarters. No silvers, but, lo and behold, 17 solid rolls of Bicentennials. I wonder if I can throw these on C'list for a slight premium?
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72

Fistfull - you may get a taker even though most here probably wouldn't bite. Always worth a try to make an extra buck though!

At SunTrust, they didn't have any halves, but on the tellers coin tray was a 1964 quarter! She said she was saving it for herself, but that I could have it!
