Have any of you found any silver or keepers from a change machine?

My last quarter find was from my local car wash. I usually change out 10 dollars every now and then with not so much luck. This is something I might try more often now this summer car wash season in hopes I find something really nice.

Post or tell about your finds.

I found a 1964 quarter from one of those bill changer machines at the mall (near those coin operated kid's rides).
This was last year.

A thread already exists for a similar concept. I think you will enjoy it. https://goccf.com/t/128850

My son just found a 1963D quarter in the coin drawer at work today. In all his years of roll searching, he has only previously found two silver quarters, so this is his only his third silver quarter. Compare that to about 100 silver dimes that he has found.

Nice. How does he usually find his dime? I have searched 4 boxes of dimes and only found one. So it has discouraged me a bit. Might try again soon I am just having good luck with nickels.

He just gets rolls. He found about 40 of his 100 in a single roll of silvers that someone dumped back into circulation and even labeled the roll "silver".

JonNickelCollector. How much does he avarage per $250 of dimes? I have only found 1 in 3 boxes. Not sure if I should continue or quit. The boxes I get are sealed of course but the rols are clear plastic. Makes me wonder if they are getting picked off when they are boxed. But then again I did find one but it was dirty and possibly dismissed as a non silver.
