[QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 795582, member: 18157"]My Father saved quite a few rolls from the late '50s and early '60s. The non-silver rolls decreased in value quite a bit since then due to inflation. That was 45-55 years ago and it will may be another 45-55 years before they regain their original purchasing power. I suspect the state quarters will continue to decrease in value over time and, even if they "appear" to appreciate, their purchasing power won't be greater that it is today...for a very long time. If you can bring yourself to part with them, you may want to sell them (at a premium, or course) to someone that likes to search OBW rolls for varieties...then use the proceeds to buy some older, high quality, key date coins that have a better chance of appreciation. Returning them to the bank (for me) would be a last resort.[/QUOTE]
