W quarters are selling for about the same as silver.

That's insane - they contain ZERO percent silver. In my opinion they should only be worth twenty five cents. Ok maybe fifty cents IF they are very low mintage.
Buy rolls NOW while you still can!

They are low mintage and hard to find. I would keep my eyes open for them.

I agree, but those prices have sustained for 5+ years, and since nicer lightly circulated examples are becoming harder to find, we can reasonably expect those prices to remain the same or possibly even increase.

$160 dimes .. mister, sort by wrap type.

Saved two for last as they were singles

Older wrap, Hanley coinrap, Salem Oregon.
Then a , Brant, Watertown WI....well this had the newest as a 1976. As I put them in my hand. Nothing. But has I poured them on my sorting tray, I saw an , off color. After some scrubbing with my thumb...1964 emerged.

There were rolls that were from the 80's, 90's. Strange sight. All 40 years old.

I agree, I did some research on them last night and saw that they ARE very low mintage. Scarcity does warrant a premium. I'm still not going to look for them in rolls, especially since i rarely open quarters anyway. but if I find any W mint in loose change, I will keep (or sell for profit).

Bank called me today to say they had a roll of large dollars. I was hopeful for silver but ended up getting 20 bicentennial Ikes. Not bad I guess. They also had $11 in small dollars, but nothing special there.

Monday's box of halves.....the streak continues......skunk. But on a brighter note, I'm seeing marked boxes with serial numbers now. It's been a minute. So maybe we're getting through most of the newbies and back to better boxes?

A dry spell... you've had em before. But it does sound like you have more competition than you used to.

I think my driest spell was something like 27 boxes....so I'm probably pretty close to that now, if not past it. But, streaks happen, good and bad........the only thing to do is sort more!

Tuesday's box of halves.......more of the same....skunkage....

Stopped at 7 banks today - 6 of them had absolutely no half dollars. The one that did - $26 face of pure junk.

Wednesday's box of halves yielded......5 x 64 :-D , 1 x 65, 3 x 66, 1 x 67, 1 x 68, and 2 x 69!!!!!! Plus a decision token..... one side says "hell yeah" and the other side says "f*** no".

Saabman, I looked up “perseverance” in the dictionary and your picture accompanies the definition.
