What Coins to Save

The key years to remember are:

-1964 was the last year for 90% silver dimes and quarters.
-1981 was the last year for 100% copper pennies.
 
I DO NOT recommend saving any post -1964 quarters! They each only have about 3.7 cents worth of copper.

And frankly, pennies are not worth the time to sort, unless you have a sorting machine.

You should save ALL nickels, since they each have about 5 cents worth of copper and nickel, and that value will likely rise. 
(Their composition hasn’t changed since 1945, but it will likely change in the next two years.)

Be Ready, Be Prepared!!!!
