Coin and Paper Money Collecting/Quarters/value

Question
QUESTION: I have 40 silver quarters with dates from 1945 to 1952 could any of these be of value?

ANSWER: Hi Yvonne,

They are all common date coins.  As such, since they are 90% pure silver, they are worth about $2.75 each.  That means your 40 coins are worth about $110

QUESTION: Where can I go to cash them in?  Thank You.

Answer
Look in the local phone book.  Chances are the dealers will offer you between $70 and $80 for the 40 coins.  But they are entitled to a profit, afterall they are in business and have expenses.

If you don't find anyone locally, contact me at 800-474-6960 and I will give you my shipping address.  I too would pay $80 for the 40 coins based upon today's market
