With the price of silver skyrocketing as of late — and U.S. quarters, issued in 1964 or earlier, being composed of 90% silver — you may be tempted to scour your old change jars or dig through the attic looking for vintage coinage.
But should you find a handful of older 25-cent pieces, it might be worthwhile to take a longer look, examining them for particular details (and judging their wear, condition and degree of circulation) to see if you’ve accidentally stumbled upon a small fortune. A pair of 1932 Washington quarters, a key date for that particular coin, are of particular interest.
