I've been searching qtr. rolls more and more in the last few weeks. Last night I found another 1964 Silver. They (silver) are pretty scarce though. My main reason for searching is to find some nice P&D Territories.....because I want to make some coin tubes of each of those.....then of course "upgrade" my P&D State Qtr. folder (built from circulation) as I find nice specimens to do so. I do have a few gnarly ones in the folder....so....it's nice to be able to upgrade on occasion. (Of course the Dansco has all real nice biz strikes in it already! I secured those a long time ago!..  ...I'm just talking about upgrading my P&D " folder") Finding "Silver" or "Foreign coins" while Qtr. roll searching, for me, is just a super nice bonus, because it's neither expected nor the goal for me really. Plus.....I figure whether everybody knows it yet or not.......at some point in the near future, if they're going to want P's and D's of the Parks Qtrs., then they're going to have to get WELL PRACTICED IN QUARTER ROLL SEARCHING ! ....  I figure, might as well start now...... Maybe I can pull out what little Silver there is to be had from the "Quarter World" in my community, before the "hoopla" begins like "Half Huntin" !

This thread is a little dated but I don't see much has changed either. Today I walked into Wells Fargo and bought 2 boxes of quarters and two boxes of Lincolns. So far we have gone through one box of quarters. No silver. I have not even been checking the face of the quarters. Just the edges. I'm looking for silver or if I see a real pretty edge, I will pull it to fill my State Quarters. I think the edges say it all. Anymore though, I just don't believe silver gets through coin counters etc. It sounds clanky and the few that were left are long gone now. I'll work on my Lincolns next, where at least I think I will have a fair chance. Anyone like searching any other rolls? The bank wouldn't give me any Kennedy halves. None. |

Chuckser, after all of the quarter boxes I have searched in past month and having found none, I just have one thing to say. Jerk! Just kidding. That is awesome and considering how long it's been in circulation, the quality is nice too! Very nice. Find some more!

Last week, I went through a combination of $290 in CWR and $210 in Fed-wrapped rolls. The Fed-wrapped rolls yielded nothing, except for one Canadian quarter. The CWR's, though, yielded two silvers: 1934 and 1951.
This week, I went through $410 in CWR and $90 Fed-wrapped. I found the following:
*1 silver, a 1964.
*4 Canadian: 1973 (it has this interesting design to honor the centennial of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police), 1977, 2001, and 2008.
*An English Five New Pence coin from 1970, which has been demonetized in the UK for about 20 years now.
