    Doesn’t have to look the best to be worth more. It’s silver!

    Any 1964 is just meant to be melted as far as I'm concerned. Another $4.50 for the silver stack :)

    This has a so-called Proof reverse. This is defined primarily by a definitive space between the E and S of states, versus touchin. I’m on vacation and away from my references and no time now to do a search.

    even better if you find in cointstar reject slot. Over the past month my dad has been an absolute magnet and has found over a dozen silver dimes and quarters.

    About 5 years ago, in college, i found fifty silver dimes in the reject slot. It was absurd. I was so lucky at that store; I also won $40 off a $1 scratcher there.

    This is a Cherrypickers variety. It is referred to a Proof reverse because Proof quarters have this reverse. The space between the E and S of the word STATES on the reverse is wider than normal circulated issued 1964 quarter E and S. The mint decided to use proof dies for general circulation 1964 quarters and other daters 1956 to 1963. The OP example carries a relatively small premium to the common circulation extremely closely spaced E and S.

    I have a BIG mistake on comments regarding the so- called Proof reverse. My eyes deceived me. This is not a Proof reverse, rather the common reverse…sorry.

    I just look at it and think.......I was 14 years old when it was minted. I also think that no coin merely deserves to be melted. What if someone said that 1,600 years ago about all the junky old Roman and Greek coins laying around?

    masterswimmer A Caretaker, can't take it with me

    Silver at face is free money.
    Silver in a CS is even 'freer' money.
    I'll take either any day of the week.

    Of course, I fully understand the excitement. I have a number I’ve kept only because they came from circulation. I can remember how I got many of them.
