I bought a bag of silver coins (Washington Quarters and Mercury Dimes) and saw a 1932 Quarter! I am excited to see what this big old bag of silver coins has in it! Buying Junk Silver - Mercury Dime and Silver Quarter Hunt and Fill #3. In this video, I will search through all the old Silver coins from the bag. I will be looking for key dates, semi key dates, and of course any varieties within the years I hunt. Hopefully you all enjoy this video!

Got a good price on some junk silver myself this weekend, with some $ negotiating I ended up at $19.50 per face, had one book filler half dollar,the rest is put away for the future 😀🇺🇸
Very nice batch o' coins, Rob. In looking for the "impossible" dates, 1916-D dime and 1932-D and S quarter, one has to remember that the mintage numbers on these years have been known since very shortly after the next years started to be made. In other words, it was known that 1916-D dimes were going to be exceptionally rare in 1917. So those coins have been hunted for over 100 years! Similar with the 32 quarters. Not only were those "first year of issue" coins, it was known in 1933 that they would be scarce. So they've been hunted for getting on 90 years now. It's incredibly unlikely you'll ever find those dates in circulation. I would also say that those Merc dimes as a group were in well above average condition. Nice batch!
Awesome hunt Rob! You definitely enjoy these! I know I do. I certainly appreciate and respect you for sharing and having the ability to do these massive junk silver hunts for us to enjoy! Thanks brother! Your videos never get old!
Interesting how the Mercury dimes are supposed to represent a youthful Liberty in a winged Phrygian cap, but the cap looks like the sort associated with Mercury - and quite early on that made people talk of the dimes as Mercury dimes. That’s people for you. The name has stuck and it’s not going away!
Thanks for sharing this with us. I have just recently completed the 32-64. What beautiful coins they are. & my extras is what I stack. Dimes and Quarters.
That Merc dime book looks awesome. It's probably my favorite coin design. It's hard to believe after all these years you can find some still with full bands.
Oh yes, that sexy bag, hello there! Some great ASMR when you pour those out, least for us 🐉 anyway. You're killing me, though, handling those proofs with bare paws and touching the face, because they are looking pretty well perfect on camera 😱 What a cool hunt! Great to see you had a lot of fillers and upgrades in that batch; those books have some really nice solid examples in there. Although "we" flat didn't expect to find any special varieties in "junk" coins, glad you check anyway, because you just never know! Not Ag, but love the 65-67s you have in the book; those are such tough years to find in good shape, much less blazers. I'm sure you can specifically buy them for condition, but to just get them "however" is a heck of a find! If there's some chest feathers going on late 60s quarters, I hang onto them as most anything that's been cruising around for almost 60 yrs is going to have a heck of a lot of miles on it. If you ever feel to do a vid on it, would be curious of your proof finds from various junk Ag buys or roll hunts. They can be in rough shape, but it's interesting to find them. I have maybe 10 proof coins I've pulled from roll hunts, and that 74 (I think - would have to check the year) quarter that I got in actual change at a store.
Rob finds treasure where you get your junk silver from I been trying to buy silver, but I don't know where to get some. I'm trying to start my collection
Those dark spots on the back of the 43 Merc could be an indication of cleaning, and that residue was left behind. If it was cleaned, it's not MS. There are a lot of spots on the reverse and even some on the obverse. The dark areas inside the devices is also evident that it was cleaned and some of the crud did not come out. I like the micro S.
Very cool hunt and fill. I have never done one on that scale. Most constitutional I’ve purchased at one time is around $45 face. That definitely looked like a collection dump. Thank you for sharing.
What do you do with the hoards of extra junk silver that you have. Do you sell some on Amazon. I would like to search. Very good find this time, and thanks for sharing.
Rob or anyone else.... Being new to coin collecting, what do collectors typically do with the coins that got upgraded? Save them?, sell them?, or just keep them all? Thanks Greg in Michigan
I've seen people fill extra books, I've seen them sell to try and get more, and I've seen them saved in tubes. It's just up to the individual, honestly.
I have Question it's probably a dumb question, I'm recently retired and my wife said I need a hobby, I've always been interested in coin collecting. I'm not looking to make money just buying those collection books and filling in the dates in those books but for me I don't care how worn the coins are as long as I can see the date. For a someone just looking have fun, Where would you recommend I start. By the way subscribed a few days ago and been binge watching your videos ever since.
Same ?. I feel silly to ask because I feel I'm asking dumb boring questions. Such as... Where can I find collection books like that? Where or how to find the so called "junk" silver to purchase in order to begin? What does stacking mean? Thanks to his videos I know where to get the supplies he uses but I don't see the collection insert books listed. I LOVE US COINS! ALWAYS HAVE, AND CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED.
So you are looking for those 3 states in all 3 mints correct? P D S (I don't know enough yet to know which ones came in which mints). Anyhow, that's all you need to complete the entire states collection, or the entire quarters in whole collection?
@@KClivlaughlove He didn't mention his purchase price as I remember. It is always a multiplier of the face value of the coins. $100 face value time 21 = $2100.
@@johnniet.7820 oh, I see. I believe he said either he paid $95 face value, or he may have said it was $95 face value in coin. I don't recall which now tho. I'm cramming my brain learning...and man oh man as a newbee, there's ALOT to learn. But oh, so fun! Thank you for helping me to understand that part of it!
