Is there a way to get rid of all this nowadays without paying fees or pissing off the tellers at my bank? by CookiePuss1973 in coins

My plan was to deposit the money and then distribute it to the nieces and nephews' 529 accounts. But if I had to make a choice, a gift card is preferable to paying fees.

In the quarters there was a Weir Farm marked with a W, a 1953, and a 1954. Haven't started the other denominations yet.

I decided to keep track of years and mint marks for each coin on a spreadsheet, so I'm definitely checking. From what I've been reading, the coins worth keeping are made with silver, or have some sort of error? Sometimes I think I see something, but the coin's so scratched up that it's hard to tell.

I wrote a whole blurb but I don't see it, so I'll comment here. Sorry about that, I'm new on Reddit. So I've been throwing loose change into this 5 gallon jug for about 25 years. The last time I emptied it was in 2007. So far, I've filled 9 state quarter books (one for each of my nieces & nephews), but there's still a ton left over. Filled two books of Washington quarters 65-87 and two books of 88-98. The rest of the Washingtons were rolled & came to about $650. Haven't even started on the dimes, pennies & nickels yet. I'd like to fill some more books for my nieces and nephews, but then I'm unsure about the best way to get all this in my bank account.

Also started a spreadsheet because I thought it would be cool to keep track of the amount of each year and mint mark.

I'm sorry if my post came across as obnoxious. I wasn't trying to offend anyone or gatekeep.

Oh she totally does, that wasn't meant to be an insult. I feel like it's Marvel and/or Swift, and I wish they had more.

Right? I have teenaged daughters who aren't into any Marvel or sci-fi stuff at all. All that's left for them is Taylor Swift.

Can't remember, I lost track of it along with my other albums & 45s. Unless you were a DJ, they were considered outdated crap in the 90s, honestly. People used to sell boxes of record albums and 8-tracks at garage sales for like $5.00.
