Damn...I started in 67... sucking on a pacifier that is Ya'll guys had it easy compared to nowadays - Searching that is.

Your 27 and I’m 27 years older

Edit to add: I feel I'm one of the younger members here

😂😂 My best friends grandfather. He always had me looking through my pocket change. one day I had found a Merc dime in my change and from there I was hooked. Every scratch, dent and coin was a question. I found this forum, probably bugged the hell out of alot of people ( I'm sorry) with is this a DDO? Rpm?, And got flooded with knowledge 😊 so here I am today, still a novice, but a passionate one!
@dagingerbeasttt Very cool! And I posted my fair share of junk too. Once you get past that point you earn your white belt. Im only a few years in and a still a novice as well.
A lot of black belts here which is great for us. I love the massive amount of possibilities and the ability to switch gears to another series if I get bored or not having any luck.
Sometimes PCGS really pisses me off when I get my grades but I truly appreciate their focus on the integrity of their name brand. One day Sensei. one day.

That is a really nice 42-D.
Hard to imagine finding a coin like that in a roll.
And congrats on the 88-D.
"Stay grumpy, my friend."
Thank you Mannie, and I will. That was some of the best advice yet. Waiting on grades now but the order I’m still putting together should be even better.

Love the game but I never think more than 3 or 4 moves ahead and lose my queen a lot...
I'm no expert...When I was born my Dad mailed an announcement to one of his best friends who was also a PHD grad (we were living in England)...his friend sent a letter back saying "very impressive, let me know when he learns to play chess." British whit lol!
My Dad sent him back a photo of me holding a chess piece apparently making a move at a few days old, I still have an original of the photo. On the back my Dad wrote "Christopher's Gambit".

Picked up this surprise box from my bank today. All 2020 Rockefeller quarters!
The Bad News
Not ONE "W".
Oh well.
You are not alone. Recently I went through a box of Salt River.
Same results as you had.
Crickets.
Strange emotions, huh? Going from one very exciting and fired up moment to the death blow! Tomorrow, I think I'm going to exchange the $500 for a bank box of Half Dollars? It's been awhile since I went through that denomination.

Yes. Except I enter it with absolutely no expectations.
I am the Spock of roll searching/cherry picking.
You can't tell by my face or actions if I have just bought a $1000 coin for $1 or a $2 coin for $1.
It doesn't mean I am not passionate about coins...I am just maybe too old to get excited about things....(That didn't come out right.......neither did that......)

Oh man! That type of box has NEVER given me 2019 or 2020 new coins. I was rooting for you....I know how frustrating it is to look through a whole box of new coins and get no W....my condolences 😪

When I walk up to the tee box it's like countdown to space launch. Not exactly sure where it's going but I guarantee you, it's going...

If you love something, set it free. If it comes back it to you. it loves you. If it doesn't, it never did
The "B" Reverse Quarters are quarters that have been accidentally minted with Proof reverses on circulated Quarters. Your 1964 Washington quarter looks to be a Proof coin. So in saying that, your's is NOT the B Reverse Quarter. Nice find though.
The B Reverse Quarters are on the dates from 1956-1964. Remember, only the non-proofs.

I thought it might be a proof but how unlikely of a find in that condition and in a roll.
Lol. Just remember, all the circulated Washington quarters (except the proofs) should have the reverse of the word " States" with the last two letters (es) being CLOSE together. Not like the proof reverses, with the last two letters in the word, "States" (es, separated).
When these two letters are separated on the reverse of the circulated quarters, that's when you call the quarter the " B Reverse Type". Kapish? Lol

Right in the middle of a Loomis roll of junk...well there was a messed up 1947 in there too.

Here is a 1981 quarter I found while looking for W quarters.
The In God We Trust looks crooked to me. Is this normal for this quarter or do I have an "error" coin?
It is dirty and circulated. I was going to " throw it back" but thought I better not until I confirm it is just worth 25C🤣😂

Awww...I got plenty more 2x2! I can recycle it if that will make you feel better!🤣😂
Thanks for your feedback!
