<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BUncirculated, post: 1443288, member: 29581&quot;]The 1894 quarter, or Barber quarter so called after the designer Charles E. Barber, is worth silver melt, at the current spot price of $27.86 that comes to $5.04.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Buffalo nickel, designed by James E. Fraser, was released in 1913 and ended in 1938 when the Jefferson nickel design was released, has been hand carved into a hobo nickel, not much value there.</p><p><br /></p><p>You mentioned the 36 silver halves from 1966 -1998. Silver was used in the Kennedy half dollar series beginning in 1964 with the last of the 90% silver coins, and 40% silver clads from 1965 - 1970. After 1970, silver was used in half dollars in proof sets, and there were silver Kennedys produced for the bicentennial dual-date coins, in the proof sets and I think the uncirculated sets from the Mint. So the ones from 1970 to 1975 are copper-nickel clad. In 1992, silver was used in the collector set Kennedy halves, in proof only.</p><p><br /></p><p>The proof coins will have the S mint mark on the obverse, or front, of the coin, under Kennedy&#039;s neck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
