Had one at the register at work the other day. Wasn't very exciting, seemed light but it made for a fun conversation.
I'm not going to start another long running set with multiple configurations. There will be P, D, S and W in Uncirculated, Proof, Reverse Proof, Silver and whatever. 50 different ones in the plan. But then they will add some special things in the mix. Too much money and too much what's next.
I agree with @Inspector43 on this, and personally don't like the design. Maybe in high relief it looks better, but newer designs leave me wanting more. JMO.
I have no idea. I have not followed the series. I only know that the US Mint will do whatever they can to flood the hobby with products.
The new obverse is nice, but the reverses are very lackluster this year overall. Without their names on the reverse the Sally Ride reverse is the only one I'd be able to guess who it was without it telling me.
Yes, I really want to agree, too. But I know when I get one I haven't seen before, I'll throw it in a desk drawer. Then when I have 5 or 6, I'll want a cheap album to put them in. Then I'll notice all the empty slots.... I'm doomed Gotta stick to circulation finds only, that's the ticket.
Heck......harken back to the 'old' days when we'd pick things out of the change, regardless of condition, and place them into albums. No drama. No 'hair splitting'. You were just overjoyed to have found it. Collector joy most profound.
I've accumulated about a dozen of these quarters so far over the course of about three weeks to a month now.
My brother sent me a picture of one with the text, "I found one; how about you?" I can just hear his taunting voice rubbing it in....brothers! To be fair he owns a coin operated coin wash so he has unfair odds.
I live within an hour of the federal reserve bank in the state, so if I wanted to I could have rolls upon rolls of them, in fact the registers at work are full of the new quarters.
