Thought I would mention... I see some sellers selling 40% silver 1965-1969 quarters and dimes. Quarters and dimes are NOT containing ANY silver from this time period. Only the Kennedy Half Dollar and Eisenhower Dollar contain 40% silver... Hence the nickname "Silverhower".
Nickels must have mintmarks above monticello and be from the WWII period to contain silver.
Dimes and Quarters must be minted prior to 1965, meaning 1964 and earlier to be 90% silver.

Bid sniping! AWESOME!
I know a lot of people have disgust for those who use bid sniping sites to get last minute wins at pennies over your bid... But... You know what... It is impossible to watch dozens of items ending the same day and be there for each one that is ending. This results in missed bids, which are missed opportunities A. to not only win for yourself, but B, to give the seller a bit better price as well. If no one bids against each other, the seller doesn't make much. I know. I've given away too much stuff for practically free.
eBay is not the same as it used to be. It used to be that several watchers on a listing meant a fierce bidding war. Now, you are lucky to get an opening bid. Which, translates into lucrative opportunities for the watchful eye. And everyone knows the earlier you run up the bid, the higher it will go and the greater the odds someone will beat your best price. Last minute bidding eliminates this risk...
I have just won some amazing deals on eBay using sniping
. They support many other bidding sites as well... They give you 15 free days to use it as well just for signing up, if you like it, use it, if not, don't use it.
Not only does it give you a chance at a good bargain, but, if you don't win, it at least helps the sellers out.
