Well, so I'm four boxes into this week's search and all still skunks so far. My last roll I discover two silver halves back to back at the end of the rolls. Voila! But then I look at the dates, 2000 and 2001. Someone marked these halves by spray-painting the rims silver! The faces were normal clad color. Anyone else encounter this?

That's a new one on me. You open a roll, see a lot of that pretty silver color and then realize that it is spray paint. That could really tick you off.

I have seen this trick many times. I got a lot of them about a year ago. Now I am just getting skunked on silver as well as the fakes.

The only "silver" quarters around here are Canadians (that don't work in the washing machine, so I have to look at the face). It'd be a waste of time for someone to paint the rims around here.

They werent S mint marks were they?

That would be something, huh? But I think the proofiness would have been more telling than the edges.
