    The Royal Mint reveals rarest circulating coins of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign


    It's from 2022, but still. This is NOT similar to the West Point Quarter program as these coins were added into circulation. The Royal Mint is just announcing the types of coins and their mintages that could still be in current circulation. The shape, weight, and various obverses of QEII are the same as standard issue coins. No need to hoard quarters and look for a minuscule "W" mintmark.

    PS: Whatever happened to the West Point Quarters? The public didn't care (as ususal)? Why limit it to quarters? Anyway I'm sure this has been debated ad nauseam.

    There are some real nice coins that were found in circulation, not for the next commemorative strike with low mintage. Just too many coins to collect.
    PS I think I may have found only 2 living in Denver, Co.
    Not many hit here in D town to be found. The W quarter will be a rarity.
