First 2 boxes of quarters for 2021. I was hoping for Tall Grass Prairies but I am happy with the restults:
1963P Silver Reverse Ender
2x Proofs (1992 2008 Hawaii)
1x San Francisco Business Strike (El Yuenge)
1x War in the Pacific "W"

 

I guess your lucky I never find anything in quarters I mainly go for dimes and pennys and always pleased with the results .

 

Nice Ender!

 

My first ever for quarters!

 

First box of cents for the new year gave me this surprise

 

Nice I still need to find a cent pre wheatie era.

 

How can you tell the difference between a proof coin that's been in circulation? Trying to learn

 

WOW!! You got these from the bank? I didn't know you could buy old coins at the bank. I'm slow I guess. Hahahaha. I'm gonna try that now!

 

imparred proof once its in circulation its a proof but its not you can tell by the much more stronger mirror like details and strike it depends on the condition.

 

I've found some I've been suspicious about. Any sure fire way to tell?

 

I've been hesitant to buy rolls on ebay. What would be too high a price for a roll?

 

Don’t buy rolls from ebay.

 

Thank you. I was concerned about that, for myself

 

You don't have to buy rolls for example buy a lot of 50 silver dimes/rolls worth for around $100 as long as there are pictures of the actual coins and don't buy items with stock photos.

 

Thank you. I've made mistakes with stock pics before. Learned my lesson

 

If you have a Red Book you can also check for mint marks. Some coins with an S or W mintmark were only minted as proofs!

 

Thank you. I haven't had a chance to get one yet but I will

 

You gotta get the Red Book.

 

Besides an (impaired) mirror like finish, the rims will be more squared off than on a circulation strike.
