I bought a $1000 bag of quarters (about $5000)

I should have bought more but I was taking them on a plane and I was
trying to make my carry on reasonable. Coins did not trigger a sales
tax in Georgia at the time, it would have been 6% of $4000 in Florida.
(the difference between the price and "face"). This was prior to TSA
but I still had to go through a metal detector. The rentacop was
curious but they let me go through.


Oh good grief. You bought a bag of quarters? You must drink a lot of
pop. What a total fool. Quarters???

You're slipping, girl, you forgot to call him a moron and a racist.


Yup I am a complete moron



Quantity: 4000
Coin Type: 1932-1964 Washington Quarter
Silver Price: $39.90 / troy ounce


Total silver value is $28,863.33.


(as of Friday)

Probably worth much more as collectors items.

These are not really collector grade coins. They have the worse than
the normal wear you see on the ones in your pocket. I am sure they
were picked over, looking for collectable dates, many times before
they made it to the "melt weight" bag.


Good investment none the less.


But, perhaps not the best. But, of course someone like you doesn't
have two to rub together.
