So my gf's mom works in a grocery store, and some guy came in and brought $40 worth of quarter to exchange for cash. She opened them up to put in the register, and they were FULL rolls of silver quarters!

She bought all 40 dollars worth and gave them to me.. I was speechless!
That's over 500 dollars right now in silver. I have no idea why someone turned them in for face. Nonetheless, they have a home now!


Any errors I should look out for? Any years worth more than melt?
Thanks!

A lot of 64's, a 1935 P, 1946 S. the 46 is the lowest mintage in the lot. I'll try to post pics in a bit. A couple 64's are in very nice shape.

The sad truth is probably his dealer wouldn't take quarters. Nice score though. Congrats!!
