<p>[QUOTE=&quot;steve63, post: 2478745, member: 76463&quot;]I think that&#039;s because people are far more likely to save smaller change (pennies, nickels, dimes) in drawers, jars, piggy banks,etc. whereas quarters are far more frequently put right back into circulation because of their larger size and value.&nbsp; I know I throw all my change into a drawer but whenever I need to grab change out of it (because I need coins for vending machines, car wash, etc), I always grab the quarters.&nbsp;&nbsp; So the smaller change can tend to accumulate in such places for years. And for some people that can turn into decades.&nbsp; So when Grandma passes away, the kids roll up the change they find in her change drawer and if it&#039;s been there for a while there is a good chance there is some silver in there, but more likely dimes than quarters.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
