I am really into paper money collecting and not so much coins but whenever I find bicentennial quarters, silver coins or error coins i put them away. I have over three rolls of bicentennial quarters are they worth anything circulated in rolls?
I keep a census on Hawaii Error notes, Radars, Repeaters, Hawaii Stars (all denominations), Low serials, 6 of a kind, 7 of a kind, Canceled notes, AC blocks, ZB blocks, FC blocks, Uncut sheets and Late plates. If you have any information you would like to share please PM me. Thanks.0

Not at all. You're doing good by saving the silver. Errors can sell for a wide range depending on what coin it is and to what degree. If you have the extra time, I'd like to see any Lincoln errors you might have.
So, lets see some.

I was given a handful of $2 bill that were never circulated. They were stamped (a 13 cent chemistry stamp) and the postage canceled. The stamp date is from 1976. What the hell do I have and is this something a currency or stamp collector would collect?
I used to see ads buying bicentennial quarters for around 28 cents each in quantity. Sounds like a great way to get rich quick!
Trivia note: the 1976-S Bicentennial quarters from the 3-piece silver mint and proof sets are the only quarters ever struck in 40 percent silver composition.

I believe april 13th was the first day of issue for the deuce or state flag stamps and people tried to complete the state collection with a cancellation from each state.on the first day of issue.. don't know about the chemistry stamp though

Yes, it's definitely worth looking for that one - - please note it is a D mint coin.

That 1976-D DDO (the wide DDO) is very marketable (although at some number well below $1100).

One of my favorites, even though it's only "worth a quarter".

<< <i>There's a dealer who advertises in Coin World offering $11.50 per roll for circs (also 40 cents apiece for 1966 quarters). Cinman14's offer of $12 per roll for the Bicentennials beats them.

I have to say that whenever I open a post I scroll down to see if there are any interesting images, then I start reading........
And, it never fails that when I see an off the wall image I don't even have to look at who the person was
Also you have never let me down!!!
Thanks

Robb these are some. The others arn't on the computer yet. Sorry about the hair on the one.
<< <i>I don't know if it is just me but I have been coming across a larger amount of bi-centennial coins in the last four months. Seven from change from different place. An the registers at work have at least one every few rolls. Okay seven may not seem a lot but before that I was avg. two a year. I am assuming this is from people deciding to cash in their coins. For a while it seemed all I got was statehood quarters now the rolls at work have a majority eagles. I have been seeing nickels from the 40,50's, and 60's. A few wheat cents and dimes are to small for me just to glance to them. >>
In this area the number of bicentennial quarters started increasing in 1999
and continued right up until a couple years ago. At that time it looked like
nearly two thirds of the production was in pocket change but they were al-
most all XF/ AU. In the last couple years (especially recently) they've been
dropping again. There are still a lot out there compared to ten years ago.
<< <i>Listed as one of the 10 most wanted coins in this month's COINage thought I'm not sure why... >>
I'm not either.
I do know this coin is extremely underappreciated in gem condition. It is far more common
in high grade than most other clad quarters of the era but that just means there are a few
thousand rather than a few hundred. There are large numbers of US type coin collectors
and not nearly enough that they can all have a gem. Plus there are rapidly growing numbers
of modern collectors and some of them will want a gem of this coin. With the size of the po-
tential demand coupled with evidence that there has been almost no demand to date the im-
plication seems to be that it belongs on some sort of list. ...Maybe not this one, though.

It's funny how collectors say their are no extra premium on the circulated coins. Yet I can't seem
to find a seller at 12 dollars a roll plus shipping...

now you've got my attention.
I dont have a cherry pickers guide handy. Got any pictures?
You wouldn't believe how long it took to get him to sit still for this.

If I recall the doubling is easiest to see on the LIBERTY and is east. I've seen very few offered but they have been over $1000 even in circulated grades.
This is another of those moderns that is certain to be common but a mere handfull are known to exist. I used to think they'd eventually turn up in well worn condition but I'm starting to doubt it.
