    Don't post and drive. :#

    Two silver quarters. What's the backstory?

    Get them in change? Fantastic!!! :p

    Paid $100 each for them? You were robbed. :/

    You can get 16 to 20 times face for them because of the silver content. No numismatic premium.

    Based on the flips in the background - probably not found in change :)

    I’d be more careful next time.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    I thought the title should be "Sorry, driving". Then I reconsidered....

    Welcome. You’ve been a member for 15 days now so I’m going to start you out with coin do’s and don’t’s.
    Please don’t handle coins like your doing in your pictures. Hold by the edges. Cotton gloves or a cotton t-shirt. On a low value coin it’s not important ( although it’s a habit you should develop ). It will cost big time with more valuable coins. Also it’s as close as you can come to simulating “fingernails on a chalkboard “ for collectors.

    @Ellis0425... Welcome aboard. You have two silver Washington quarters. I see no other distinguishing characteristics that could add numismatic value. Those pictures are not conducive to grading, so no guesses. Cheers, RickO

    Not to mention texting and driving is probably not the best life choice 🤨

    To all I was driving and a friend was scratching all my coins up and posting in passengers seat. Thanks for concerns. Also I have about 200 pounds or better they came from my grandfather's bar which was open in 60s and he had kept everything silver original rolls from bank and sacks of loose change. May I add everyone is and has been very helpful here. That's refreshing

    Balancing coins and driving is even worse!

    Didn't they live in a yellow submarine. Surrounded by strawberry fields. Neighboring a walrus and one Sergeant pepper and some crazy guy with a silver hammer. Yeah sound advice coming from that crowd!
