<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2268964, member: 76194&quot;]I&#039;ve had two silver quarters, a silver dime, an Indian Head penny, and quite a few wheat Lincoln pennies given to me in change over the last decade. I think what happens is probably someone dies in a nursing home who was hoarding a handful of silver coins and old pennies, and their clueless relatives think it&#039;s just regular coinage and go out and spend it. One of my silver coins was a near mint 1932 quarter, and the second time I got the silver quarter and dime in the same transaction...both 1964. Probably someone had just given them as change just before I got them at the grocery store. When the cashier gave me the change and I heard the sound they made as she gave them to me, I knew I had silver before even looking. Silver sounds different than the clad stuff.</p><p><br /></p><p>Congrats and happy hunting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
