So any quarter dated 1965 or after is not 90% silver. The 90% silver coins will have a date stamped 1964 or earlier.

Bingo! Except nickels minted from 1942 through 1945 contain 0.0563 troy ounces of silver. Kennedy halves minted from 1965 through 1970 are 40 percent silver (0.1479 troy ounces).

Yeah I just read that about nickles and half dollars. Not a terrible investment, if you don't mind sitting on it for some time. The 90% nickle/dimes are your best bet, right after the 1984 half dollar, which is almost pure silver. May take some time to really capitalize, but not a bad item to have in a personal portfolio.
