Alabama Look For This Dime Worth $9,000!
Time to pull out your dimes and quarters!
Alabama, I have found some coins that could be worth over $9000.00! That’s a whole bunch of bills that can line our wallets versus taking up space in our cup holders, jars, or coin purses.
Which coins are we looking for exactly? Well, 2 coins were minted in 1965 that can line our pockets with some serious cash. We are searching for quarters and dimes. A 1965 quarter has sold for over $7000.00 and the 1965 dime has sold for $9000.00. So what minting errors are we looking for?
For starters, it’s an error that we don’t need to use a magnifying glass to find. So it’s not a die error or double minting we're looking for.
A brief history lesson that leads to our search. Quarters and dimes from 1964 were minted from 90% silver…how does this information help us with the 1965 coins we are looking for?
The US Mint made a mistake and some quarters and dimes from 1965 were mistakenly minted with 90% silver. Those are the coins we are looking for. So how do we know which were minted from 90% silver? Stack up those 1965 dimes and quarters and look at the rim of those coins.
The coins were are looking for have a very distinctive silver rim. If you happen to see the silver rim you have found a coin worth thousands of dollars!
