<p>[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 2812569, member: 78298"]While they were still minting 1964's in 1965 and 1966 ( I assume because of the metal change they wanted to use up their silver the result being a HUGE amount of 1964 quarters and dimes) along with clad quarters in 1965 and 1966, a rare 65 or 66 does exist on a silver planchet. By 1969 this is highly unlikely. There is always the possibility that one silver blank could have been stuck in a weird place, and eventually became dislodged and was used unknowingly with the 1969 clads. Or, as was mentioned in a different thread, someone could be cleaning up at night, find an old blank on the floor or behind a machine, and just tosses it in the hopper with the other clad planchets. That being said, I don't think this 1969 is silver. Weight will confirm that 99.9% of the time. 6.25 for silver 5.67 for clad. Even if the clad was plated it prob would weigh less than 5.75.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
