No 24's yet here in MD for me. I have been using less cash to be honest so there is that but still should have seen at least one by now.
Found 2024-D dimes in the drawer for the first time this year. Haven't yet seen any 2024 nickels though.
I'm not sure when this started happening; I've only noticed 2023's having such a pronounced sharp rim, but older ones might just be too worn to notice. I swear though, the rim is more pronounced than I've even seen on many proofs. And only on the nickels; pennies, dimes, quarters, never seen such a thing. It's almost like they're using higher than normal minting pressure. Maybe the ones I noticed this on were just from a very early die state? Best semi-educated guess I have. P.S. It makes me feel old when people refer to the 20th century as "the 1900s" lol.
I'm getting tons of 2024 quarters. They're pushing them hard out here. I suspect there's an agenda/narrative.
Just got my first 2024's yesterday, a 24 D cent and a 24 D dime. There are some of the 2023's I haven't seen yet. Not a chance, The government has tried several times in the past. In 1942 they appealed to citizen to turn in their cents so they wouldn't have to strike as many new cents (copper being war critical material). They framed it as a patriotic appeal and you would think with the war feeling running high after the attack on Pearl Harbor it would have been a success. Failed completely. There were appeals for people to turn in their coins during the big coin shortage in the early 60's. No good because people were hording the coins due to the rising price of silver. There was another big cent shortage in 1974, again appeals were made for people to turn in their cents. Again it failed. Banks were even offering as much as 60 cents a roll for them but it didn't work.
I officially have some Mary Walker quarters in my possession, but they came straight from the Mint, not from circulation, so they kind of don't count. Really like the design. Have started to see 2024 dimes finally. Weirdly, over half way into the year, still not seen any 2024 nickels in the drawer. But many many 2023's for some reason.
Well as far as quarters go, I'm still working on my state quarters right now. I've found a lot of the 99's & 00's that are in decent shape. Along with other years I check and pretty much keep every quarter I come across just in case that one I already have has a nicer replacement. In the end I'll return all my extras into circulation.
