<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 3707358, member: 92655"]Are you familiar with the tissue test? It is quite unscientific and simplistic but it works pretty darned good for a starter. Take yourself a pre-64 quarter and a post-65 quarter and lay them side by side. Then lay a single ply sheet of tissue over them. The difference you will see is quite pronounced..... It certainly isn't a definitive test by any stretch, but it is a quick and easy way to start sorting unfamiliar silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
