Al of them come in a sleeve with a leather display case. All Have 7 coins with the extra silver dollar. Was wondering what I should do with them or if there was anything special I should look for.
1974,1975,1976,1982,1983
Thanks in advance

not sure...that seems to be the era when I was buying them....unfortunately the silver coins may only be 50% so that kills their melt value....coins are nicely presented, but RCM produced too many to be in demand even 40 years later....nice gifts for anyone that shares some significance for any of those years. |

He also had the biggest bag of silver quarters I ever saw. Offering them 3 for 10$. I picked out all the edwards. Took me 2 hours. Most of them were l owballs. Wish I had more time this morning.

Melt value for 3 silver quaters today is $9.38 so you paid a premium of ±6%

I've seen lots of 4 at a time sold on ebay for $12-18 USD so you`ve probably doubled your money if you decide to offer them & keep the shipping low $2-3.00 sent simple letter mail. Edited by TaeKenDo

I have a question about the 1974 set you picked up... On the smaller nickel dollar at the bottom I believe, is the Queen`s effigy frosted in any way or shiny nickel like the other nickel coins in the set. The reason I`m asking is because I have one of these and I`ve seen the same one offered up on ebay but it didn`t look like the Queen was frosted & mine is. I asked the seller but he never responded...guess he thought I was too demanding. |

He wouldn't sell me the whole bag. I only picked out a few coins for numismatic value. Got a 1915 probably a Good. A couple better dates. Nothing spectacular. I guess he's owned a restaurant for year and saves all his silver. Says he still gets 3 or 4 silver pieces a week.

The ones for the 70s have only a tad more frost than the fields. The ones from the 80s are super frosty.

That 1915 is sterling silver, all of the pre 1920 coins were higher silver content so you did good
