Now, something to keep in mind is that collectors want coins that are in nearly mint condition.

so if you happen to have one of the above quarters in your possession and it's been sitting in a coin jar and may have been scratched or damaged or is dirty it may not fetch quite as much money.

So what are you waiting for?

Start scrounging through your cup holder, coin jar, and couch cushions, and head down to one of the pawn shops on 37!
