    35 cents! Nice Tom. What'd you use to clean those puppies?
    Also, you get a date off the quarter?

    Man all I could get was the first 3 number's and the mint mark,that last number is real ate up.
    I knew they were toasted so I just soaked them in CLR for a couple of hour's.I think they may have been in a fire,as the house that stood on this site was probally from the 40's or 50's and it is also real close to the old part of town.Probally about block from the old part.HH,Tom

    I now know that when you type know, you mean now.

    Nice two-fer. And great job of cleaning them. How did you do it?

    Hey ContheC,english was my worst subject in highschoolimage

    I used CLR on them,I did this because I all ready new they were fried and I just wanted to be able to get them clean and also be able to see the date's.I wouldn't use this method on good coin's.

    Millennium actually the ground isn't to bad on the coin's here.We have a few park's where you can go in and dig a nice silver and it woulf look just like the day it was dropped.
    I think from the look's of these coin's they went through a fire and it must of been a hot one!!As the coin's actually have bubble's in them and they have a differrent colorization then other silver's I have found.
    I have found one's with the greyish look to them but nothing this dark before.HH,Tom

    Hey, Tom. I have decided that I want the quarter to be a 1901-S. The only reason I want it to be that particular date is because, even in “GOOD” condition, PCGS price guide puts the value at $5,700.00.

    Here’s hoping …


    Edited to add this link (Scroll down a little to 1901-S)

    Nice finds Tom! I'd love to find a Barber quarter! I've only found dimes thus far.
