Sealed for a very very long time.

Happy collecting.

 

Ever get one of the W minted quarters they released this year, they have put out 2 million in circulation across the country.

 

Not yet.

 

Impressive effort but those rolls and bags aren’t real attractive. Do you keep folders with singles so you can enjoy them I will know I would. I’ve been building folders of modern quarters since ATB started and some of the designs are great. I still pull out the folders to look at them from time to time. I even pop them out and Look at some of my favorites under my old non digital scope to really appreciate the design elements.

Sorry, but I can't see the collecting joy in rolls and bags of coins that you never open.

 

I have UNC ATB coin set that is why I dont open the rolls and bags. The rest are just hoarding to hand me down for the kids.

 

Well I'm not here to please you or anyone. Thats my preference and you can always look at a wall.

 

Cool i figured you probably had a set of singles to look at. Nice hoard BTW.

Happy Collecting everyone.

 

There's all kinds of collectors, I guess. Personally, I'd be depressed if my collection was all sealed up in vacuum bags. Though I have to commend OP for his commitment and for his impressive collection of America the Beautiful quarters, even if it isn't my cup of tea.

I guess that's why I collect ancients though, nothing beats being able to touch your coins.

 

That's a beautiful handful!
But hey, to each their own I suppose.

 

Coins are tactile. There is pleasure in holding them and looking at them.
If a guy wants to keep them in sealed paper tubes and closed bags and never open them, that's his choice.
But I have to agree with John Milton and Sallent on this one.
I used to buy "unopened" old wax packs of baseball cards. Most were genuine.
Perhaps some were not. But the joy is in opening them and seeing what may be in there. (I pulled 2 Cal Ripken rookies among others.) But there are people who buy them and never open them. They display them in packs, that will remain unopened.
They are even GRADED and encased in a plastic tomb as an unopened pack.
Like I said they can do what they want, it's their money, it's their collection.
But I don't understand it and I will never understand it.
If you are trying for future value, these coins were produced in massive numbers. The highest graded coins and lowest mintage coins (S coins) will
probably be worth about double their value in the future. But most of them are going to be face value coins that you paid a premium for.
He argues that these coins are MS-70 because they are in OGP. It's possible that 1 out of a 1000 might be MS-70 although that is unlikely and prob a 68 or 69 but most of them are going to be in the 65 range.
