<p>[QUOTE="cladking, post: 1674194, member: 68"]I've long thought the old silver quarters would do extremely well from an influx of many collectors of the states issues. Modern collectors tend to prefer nice well made coins and if they carry this demand back into the silvers, which is possible since they exist in some quantity, then there will be a lot of new demand for nice MS-64 and higher Washingtons. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think this will be some time in the future yet but such things aren't really predictable. It seems like it will take significant maturation of demand in the new collectors but it might not. They might go straight to them or they might never really get around to them. But it's almost a given that there will be some spillover into the silver quarters. It might be too early to callthe whole series a sleeper but there are sleepers in the series certainly. The '40-D and '49 in better grades are interesting, for instance. I think some of the '30's common coins are underappreciated, probably.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
