Tonight I learned that a group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope. I picked up my boxes of coins from the bank today and pulled 64 Tall Grass Prairie "W"s from the 2 boxes of quarters. 37 in the first box and 27 in the 2nd box. I think that qualifies as a kaleidoscope
Man, I should hunt quarters. Though with my luck I'd search 10 boxes and have nothing to show for it. That is awesome that you found that many.
Holy cow! Congratulations - that's a great haul. I looked through 30x rolls (I believe box contains 50x rolls?) and found zero West Point quarters. I was hopeful to get my hands on at least one in the wild, but it seems they all ended up in your two boxes!
The people who distributed them to circulation didn't do a very good job. Some places have a bunch and other places have none.
Yeah I don't think they did much more than toss the 2 million onto the top of the bin and then "sort" them off to whichever branch which then unevenly distributed them.
Nice,as much as I would like to find a hoard of W quarters I think I'll stick to wheaties and silver rossies good luck.
As far as I am concerned they don't even make it to my wanted list. But, I am glad to see @furryfrog02 get a nice mess of them. Way to go.
I too have little interest in collecting them personally, but that being said, I'd be delighted to find some in circulation (to flip, of course), and to hit a hoard like that would really be a rush. I can sort of see why so many folks enjoy the hunt.
I was really into getting them just to have a set for each of my kids and myself. The rest I have used to trade and/or flip for things I really collect .
