    I'd say they both AG, prolly not worth more than the silver content, the first one looks like its a filler coin, if you were putting together a set. The 2nd one you might start a junk silver pile like some of us and when silver (If) hits 18.00 send it off to the smelters!
    What else you got did you have a large purchase?

    both in the just Good area. Not really worht a lot for value. That is why I never got to interested in that coin. Just one more of the well worn, to soft coins of our past.

    I realize that these two coins are in fact lowwwwwwwwww grade coins. But melt? Anyone check on the mintage stats of these two coins ? They are #2 and #3 rarest in the set.
    1901-S BARBER QUARTER DOLLAR Mintage: Circulation strikes: 72,664
    1913-S BARBER QUARTER DOLLAR Mintage: Circulation strikes: 40,000

    I see the 01S on ebay, approx same condition with a buy it now of $3150.00
    the 13S has a starting bid of $800.00

    Scratching my head on some of these replies.

    Ooops. correction.. They are #1 and #2 for business strikes. I thought the 1896-s had lower mintage.

    Ruben, 35K is $35,000.00... : ) I missed that too, had to read it a second time. Shoot, I was in line to buy!

    Sorry about that, I was just being lazy, I should have written the whole thing out instead of abbreviating it, lol.

    Where is the 13S for sale? The reason that I ask is that I can't tell if the mintmark is correct, it's just too worn and the pic is too small. For a coin that valuable, I'd want it graded just to avoid getting an altered coin.

    or you could melt them down, lol ;)


    btw, it's good to see you around Ruben, it's been a while.

    The 1913-s is a altered coin. If it was a real 13-s the stars at 9 Oclock would be worn. The 13-s was struck weak at that spot and also the mint mark looks added.

    I wish I owned that thing! Unfortunately it is for sale by someone else.
