    went to my local grocery today. I noticed the cashier had bright shiny quarters in his drawer , so I asked him to break a dollar for me, and they were weir farms and there was a W in the 4 he gave me. So I asked if he’d sell me the rest. So I bought $10 worth from him (loose). Asked the other cashier if he had a roll, and sure enough he had a roll of new weir. In the ones I bought loose, there were 9 W’s. And one more in the roll! Woo Hoo!
    Going back tomorrow for more.

    Wow, nice going! Of the 7 at the top of your pic, I would have the one at the 4 o’clock position graded. Maybe the one at the very bottom of your picture as well, but can’t tell for sure as it’s in a shadow.

    Went Back to the grocery store today and bought 6 more rolls of Weir Farms quarters. They produced 16 more W's. I now have 26 total!

    Happy to hear you found them! That's insane! It's exciting to find big haul.
    On the flip side, I guess this means the mint didn't spread them out better than last year like they said they would if you have now found 26 in what I would assume to be 8 rolls.

    Then again, I guess it's up to the third party services to mix them in...anyway, that's an awesome find! Congrats!

    Yeah I was suprised to find that many in 8 rolls! My best find EVER! I already traded 2 for the 2 2019 W's I need to complete my 2019 W's collection. (only 2 of each issue). Will use these Weir Farms as trading stock for the other 2020'd I need.
    I was suprised to see them get a full box of 2020 quarters.That just never happens here.

    I'm in Florida....Outskirts of Tampa. Noticed the local 7-11 has Weir Farms quarters too. Will go talk to the MGr Later. Looks like a LOAD of Weir Farms showed up in this area this week.

    :zombie:3 boxes this week yielded 7 silvers, so I’m back in the game! The 3rd box was the best with 6 silvers (including a 1935 Walker - @1913LibertyHeadNickel!). :D
    Also a 1987-P, I haven’t found one of those in awhile.

    Picked up $200 of CWR halves from one bank, but I believe they are a dump after searching a handful of rolls. Will check them all later for varieties. I was more excited about the $50 of mixed wrapper half rolls I picked up at the 2nd bank! One CWR had 10 x 40%ers. I wish they could all be that easy. :cool:
    I also picked up 2 boxes of quarters and 1 box of halves for later.

    Meow has found this Cats' tenth W quarter, and a Silver one. The silver quarter does a good job of hiding amongst the clads. Besides the date and mintmark, Meow would never would have thought it was a silver one. Even the reeded edge looks like a worn clad. Meow wonders how many years this well disguised quarter was in the wild. It could not elude this Kitties hunting and became prey.

    Wow terrific! Such luck! Meow has to go through about $1000 in rolls just to find one W. Meow has not yet to find one in paw with change.

    Yes ,is on the undinged side for a once or twice spent coin. Meow is happy to find any W quarter, but has still not found a San Antonio one yet. Meow now has 1 Lowell, 7 Marianas, 2 War, and one River. Seems where Meow lives, the distribution of new coins are not quite even. Meow has yet to see a single 2020 coin in roll yet.
