...what about quarters?
When youre making a pressed quarter, would a pre-1965 quarter produce a better result? Until 1965 quarters were 90% silver; quarters minted since 1965 are almost entirely copper. Yeah, I know that the metal content of a silver quarter is about $2.50, but Im just wondering if they work better in the pressed-quarter machines than newer ones. Also, would Canadian coins (pennies or quarters) produce better results?
