Hi Friends,
Well it sure has been a minute since i last posted. All kinds of fine manners and crazy shit has occurred since, and then some! But like an old scallywag from the wayback that meets you in the street and winds up living in your basement for 29 months, here i am 😜
…now i’m just testing water pressure in your illegal suite, but i do have a good ol’ story for ya…
It’s a couple months now, but one day back in Jan i was grabbing an Americano from a coffee shop close to work, paying with cash, and low and behold: what the fuck is that!!?
The old eagle eye and scarab beetle horn detected it immediately:

Now this is no spectacular monetary find. That quarter is probo worth about $10, but the fact that is came out of CIRCULATION in 2025 is astounding! And only reaffirms that silver is highly undervalued.
The deets are that ‘67 was the final year that Cad coinage had 80% — in 1968 half the coins minted still had silver, but then the rest were alloy. The one above is the last of the Mohicans, as it were…
Eyes on the prize Amigos & Amigas! We’re in for a wild ride!
Cheers! from
Any 1968 25 Cents I find are nickel alloy but even these hardly show up in loose change anymore being most often heavily wore and removed from circulation. 0.500 silver is worth keeping. Great to see you Captain @thedamus ☠️ Feel free to drop by again anytime.
I think yer correct: i couldn’t remember if 50% of 68’s were 80%, or 80% of them were 50%, but i thinknyer right on the 0.50
At any rate, getting some shiny back in your change is always a lustrous occasion. Fly on Raven! …and may you too find shiny everywhere you look!
Think how I feel, just getting back ordinary change...lol...
Win-win is good for everybody
It’s rare now but still happens every blue moon
Its like youve never been away. Nice to have you back
Who dis?...
It's always awesome finding gold or silver unexpectedly. Once I found a 14k bracelet in a parking lot! Always check coinstar machine rejects as well.
