About Dan Moore Expertise My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library,
and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just
about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current
price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So,
with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value
any U.S. coin you have.

Question I have about 1000 silver quarters. A dealer offered me $2 each. Is that an ok price? Should I look for certain dates and pull them out because I could get more $? What dates would be worth more???
Answer Lori,
Assuming these are Washington quarters, the only ones you should even consider pulling out are dated in the 1930's. Anything dated 1932 (especially if it has a "D" or "S" mintmark on the back), and those other dates in the 1930's that have a "D" or "S" mintmark AND have at least half of Washington's hair details still visible. These are the only ones that could have any significant added value. If you find any of these, let me know, and I can figure out values for you.
At current silver prices, $2 per coin is pretty low -- it should be more like $2.50 per coin.
