Hey Port..cool score! I CRH every so often and from what I gather..one silver GW per 30 rolls is actually a great ratio! Those are hard to come by...Congrats on curing your cabin fever!! Ddf..

I just pulled a 62 quarter from a Coinstar reject tray.

How much do you get for these coins?

This level of detail is well beyond "Redbook" , It appears that you've made a serious study of contemporary mint errors , and die irregularities. Is there a market for these seemingly obscure varieties ?

just look at sold errors on Ebay. the little stuff sells for way over face, but my only DDR-- a '39 nickel Monticello & Cents has been a dead item at about $90 in VF condition. I have learned there is a collector for everything :laughing7:

Great finds! It looks like there's a lot of errors to find in the quarters, but I don't see how someone could CRH quarters strictly for silver...I'd go insane! lol

Translation: you don't make much $ off those types of errors. I'm not bashing you for doing it. I just don't have the patience or the want to search for those types of errors. They just don't excite me like an error that is so obvious that you don't need a loupe to see it.
