Went through a box of quarters today and found nothing. Got excited at a silver looking edge but it ended up being a canadian quarter :angry7:

then had 22 pre 59 in a nickel box

still have a box of pennies to go

Anyone else do quarters, and do them successfully? Or is this a denomination where a super high volume is requied?

Kinda makes me want to start an arcade :)
 
I do quarters, don't have very good luck but they are really, really easy to dump. I average 1 silver for every 2-3 thousand I search through.

Thanks for the info! I might have to give that arcade another thought...
 
the only reason i did quarters this time was because when they opened their floor vault the box looked old and I thought the coins would be older. I was wrong, the teller said that the box was laying around and they had a bunch of rolls they put in it >:(
 
Quarters are so awesomely easy to dump, but I gave up on them after finding nothing.

A week after I swore them off, the teller at the post office found one in a roll...go figure!
 
nice job on the nicks, too bad on the quarters...better luck next time, and on the cent box! keep it up and hh! [R.I.P. Rich Hartford]
 
Quarters are hit and miss. Went through a box of quarters yesterday and it was a skunk. My box prior to that I got on silver quarter. They are easier to dump thou than halves. I tend to have better luck with nickels and dimes. HH
 
When i went to dump these quarters the teller was actaully happy to take them. Thats the first time any teller was happy to take any of my coins
