    Let me explain, my father stumbled upon people throwing away a safe they couldn’t open and said if he could open it he could have what was inside. Inside had hundreds of us and foreign coins from dates ranging from ancient to semi-modern. Within this collection are 2 quarters, 4 nickels, and 1 dime that have nothing extra ordinary at first glance, but I am a novice and don’t know what to look for. I just don’t see why someone would put 7 modern coins into their coin collection .

    The quarters from right to left are: 1776-1976 quarter no mint and 1999 quarter with Denver mint. The 1999 quarter may have had some dye error? It seems to have a more golden tint.

    The dime is from 1967 no mint

    Nickels from left to right are: 1942 no mint, 1964 no mint, 1970 Denver mint and 1972 Denver mint.

    If you need specific coins with better pictures I can provide.

    Those are all just all well-circulated coins. People do weird things sometimes.

    ^ What Furry said.

    All of those are normal coins that can be found in pocket change. The bicentennial quarter is nice but not worth anything above 25c. The 1942 nickel is also a nice old coin but without a mint mark, it's only worth 5c. Some nickels in 1942 were made out of silver but they all have large mint marks above monticello on the reverse.

    Someone's pocket change, unfortunately, but it's good that you asked. Better safe than sorry.

    Might have had some personal significance to the previous safe owner. No collector value there.
