1937 25c found in circulation!

TorinoCobra71

I got this 1937 Washie in change from my local supermarket yesterday:




I asked the cashier if they had anymore of these. They opened up their cash register and went thru the rest of the quarters and then the dimes, at my request, and found nothing else that was silver. I wonder how this guy found its way into circualtion after being 70+ years old!

WOW!

I would guess that it grades G4 or so, what say y'all?

I found a 1935 (S) quarter in a coin star a few months back,, I don't think it's rare/value but is cool anyways...

Nice one Gary!

Mt grandaughter keeps getting silver quarters in change at the HS cafeteria. I buy them for 80% of spot. She likes that.

I finally received 2 Log Cabin cents in change yesterday. I think my find was more rare

Seriously though, finding any silver in change is always fun regardless of the condition/value

I received a 1952-S quarter in change just three days ago in Mamonth, CA.

It is very cool to find any silver in your change.

Due to the downturn in the economy, millions of jars of coins that have spent decades on the floors of closets across the country, have been cashed in. Now is a good time to serach through rolls from the bank, especially pennies. I've noticed a lot of MS cents from the 1960's in circulation lately.

Very nice. Only once or twice have I found silver dimes in circulation, and that was no later than about 1983 or so. Never a quarter, let alone one from the '30s.

I cant believe people are so dumb as to spend silver coins. Hello!!

kwmorgan

I found a 1961-D dime in dime rolls about 2 weeks ago. I am definitely finding better looking older clad coins nowadays.

I rec'd 1935 Buffalo nickel in change. I can just barely read the date.

budfay

I found a '62-D quarter awhile back along with some wheat cents (no rarities).

A few months ago my neighbor asked me to look at the old coins he had hidden in his drawer for years. But over half of them were missing, He thinks it was his son, now 15 over the years taking one every so often and spending it.

So let me get this straight: you want your mother to take advantage of school children and pass all the rewards from this venture onto to you... man! you are one sick puppy!

As for the coin, great find TC. Just another show case example of times being difficult!

Congratulations, YaHa; with those pictures you're destined to be a top eBay seller!

I got a 1945-S Jefferson silver nickel in change at Dairy Queen the other day. It drew my attention because it was almost black.

Cartwheel

Oh, and very nice find, TC!

P.S. Talk about old habits: 45 years since silver left circulation, and I still check the edge of all the dimes and quarters I get (not so much Lincolns for wheats anymore).

I'm kind of shocked people are still finding these. My granddad owned a laundromat in the 80s when I was a kid going through the quarters, I usually only found about 1-2 silvers per week (out of going through endless rolls)

Found this bunch looking at rolls.
