If it didn't happen......

Hey, if the 1964 silver quarter wasn't made out of silver, would it still be collectible ?

in MS-65 sure.

 

But in low grades? Would it be useless like the 1964 nickel? Or overlooked in change like the 1964 penny?

 

It would be just like the '65 quarter and '64 nickel.
Annoying. Except in the higher grades of course.

 

What is over looked on the 64 pennie?

 

It would be collectible if thats what you collected...just like any coin. People pay thousands of dollars for modern ms 70 coins that were made in the billions, so why not?

 

Hit the nail on the head. It would seem to be the most abundantly circulating '60's quarter to those looking for a '64. I still have yet to find a '64, or earlier, quarter in circulation.

 

I think im the only idiot that collects circulated dimes,pennys,halves,nickels,quarters from 65-present :|.

 

Nah... Here's another Idiot!

love to hear not the only idiot out there then !

 

Since you are talking of a 1964 US quarter made on other than a silver planchet, this could have considerable value. Coins stamped on wrong planchets are errors and there are demand for them. IMHO

And I am also an idiot

gary

 

I thought people didn't like them as much as wheat pennies, even if its made of copper.

 

Idiot #4 here.

 

I collect the pennies, to complete my date set-- and they do not represent a considerable outlay. Circulated clad quarters, on the other hand, have a way of convincing me that once I have accumulated a certain amount of them, that I could find another use for them.

Collector1966, who is still waiting for that uncirculated 1974-D quarter he got from the bank in 1974 to appreciate in value.

 

I would still be looking for a Type B or C 1964 quarter. :smile TC

 

That would make me idiot #5.

 

I went through several rolls of the 64's and found not a single type B or C (although I suspect a type C) Even the triple struck D on one I was told a strike error although it's the only doubling I could see. Still looking, but only when I don't have a box of cents to search.

 

If it didn't happen, it wouldn't happen......

 

Does a falling tree make a sound when it hits the ground and no one is there to listen?

I have always answered these type questions with a resounding, yes!

 

Funny, but I had a feelin' someone was gonna say that......
