Bi-Centennial Half-Dollars and Quarters

As a family gift, I took home a bunch of half dollars and quarters and nickels.

Half dollars are interesting coins, with Kennedy on the front and the eagle on the back. But more interesting are the bi-centennial half dollars, which are tricky to find in change or from a bank.

I also got an entire roll of BU bi-centennial quarters that look very sharp.

The quarters would be graded "uncirculated" but they do show some standard "bag wear" and are not exactly prestine.

I remember as a child finding one of these in my change. I was convinced I had somehow found a coin from 1776

I"m not sure what to do with this change. It's unique enough to be collectible, but they are not rare or in high demand. I could spend them at face value, or get a gift card from coinstar, or I can just add them to the stack.

All together, it's about $55 face, but if I sold them individually, I might get $70 - $80 all together for their numismatics value.

What do you think I should do with these?

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.

Bank Bailout Special!

It's happening, folks. The banks are going under! To educate our children about what is going on, there is a "Bank Bailout Book Bonanza" going on with the Tuttle Twins! Use coupon code FORTY for 40% off your purchase! Check out the books here.

Someone told me that a 1970 quarter with an s mark is worth money. I am keeping an eye out for one. I do not remember what it was but there was something about the bi-centennial quarter being worth something, sorry my memory is not what it once was. And there is a quarter with a wart on Washington's nose.

When the federal reserve note goes away and the dollar becomes constitutional again, 371.25grains of pure silver, then all the coins should acquire the new value.
Coins are treasury money and not federal reserve notes.
The banks pay face value to get them from the mint.
A dollar of coins in your jar is a dollar taken from the banksters.
I've stashed away a good number of coins for just this eventuality.

Your post leads me to believe, you don't think they'll ever be used to make change for our New Product Line of "Circulating" Silver and Gold Coins... Or are you just trying to get a reaction out of me...lol...???
