Hi pojols74, and to CoinTalk. Bicentennials are generally worth 25¢, 50¢ or $1 unless they are in astonishingly great condition - MS68+ on the Sheldon scale - or their bullion value if they contain silver. Mercury dimes are worth at least their bullion value, which is a nice multiple of face, and depending on the year, mint and grade, could be worth considerably more. If you mean pre-1965 quarters, read the previous sentence again, but substitute "Quarters" for "Mercury diims".
