Stopped into my coin machine bank today head teller stated someone came in with $500 in hand rolled quarters from his mother's estate and asked if I was interested, she knows silver and said she looked in a couple of rolls and did not see any.

I took them taking the chance, glad I did first roll had a 1964.
About 8 rolls in the whole roll was silver coins, examined the wrapper in faint pencil it said SILVER.
I found 4 more rolls with the same note on the roll, a couple non silver but 205 silver quarters........what a hit.

I will put some photos up tomorrow if time permits
Good luck to all.

Here's a photo of yesterday's treasure.
All the Standing Liberty quarters have the date worn off unfortunately.

Probably a once in a lifetime hit, I'll take it.


Good luck to all and I hope you all have a similar experience soon.

WOW!

I've heard of someone from the Canada forum finding a similar haul, but I don't ever recall anyone finding this many silver US coins in one haul. That's easily $600 alone on bullion you've made, and who knows if there are some higher grade ones like the many pre-WWII dates that command nice premiums in higher grades.

I guess the friend/relative couldn't notice the "Silver" hard enough, and it shows that typically when such finds occur, they tend to be huge! The best I've ever done is a single silver quarter back in the day.

Have you counted them up by date? If so, I'd appreciate if you posted the list here.
