Just got done with $1000 in quarters and found this bad boy! Only one silver but I did fill in a few missing spots in my Whitman folders so overall it was a good search!

Can't bring myself to search quarters. Seems like impossible odds. Congrats on beating the odds. HH

Yeah you are absolutely right...1 silver quarter found out of 4,000 quarters searched = .025% silver. I would certainly say the odds were against me! It was nice to find about a dozen or so that I was missing for my Whitman folders so in the end not a bad day for me.

Good job, and pics! Quarters aren't that bad. My find rate for quarters is a little less than dimes, by silver volume. About 1 per $500 (quarters), about 3 dimes per $500.
