2022 US Quarters?

Hello,

After 2021 will the mint go back to the old quarter design?

By December 31, 2018, Secretary Mnuchin must issue a directive authorizing a second round of ATB quarters. If he does not, the new "permanent" design will be Washington Crossing the Delaware. [Not the Delaware Turnpike like in the GEICO ad.] Regardless, we will NOT be returning to the eagle reverse, absent a new law.

Middle of page 6.

 

Think this is the right section...

‘‘(8) DESIGNS AFTER END OF PROGRAM.—Upon the completion of the coin program under this subsection, the design on— ‘‘(A) the obverse of the quarter dollar shall revert to the same design containing an image of President Washington in effect for the quarter dollar before the institution of the 50-State quarter dollar program; and ‘‘(B) notwithstanding the fourth sentence of subsection (d)(1), the reverse of the quarter dollar shall contain an image of General Washington crossing the Delaware River prior to the Battle of Trenton.

Pretty sure all of the troll comments I was deciding on would have actually been better than this.

 

Perhaps the clad quarters of 1965-1999 may finally gain some numismatic attention when that change occurs.

 

Based on the fact that like 90% of even coin collectors are unaware the eagle reverse is done?

 

Gag.

 

Any idea what the reverse would look like? I'm guessing something similar to the NJ State Quarter. Wouldn't mind going back to the old design, but I wonder what it will look like with the ultra-low relief format the Mint has been putting out lately.

 

We'll know sometime in the future.

 

Whoa. Deep. But I'm guessing it's gonna smell a lot like the NJ state quarter. But the "other"/"old" version of the obverse comes back, so there's that.

11 days for the Secretary to decide.

 

I thought the Delaware Turnpike scene was a "Go" ?

rats

 

"We've all got places to be! We've all got places to be!"

 

Would buy

 

Well, if ol' "Chucklehead" Mnuchin doesn't certify a second round of ATB's in 10 days, we're going back to an obverse dated, new Washington Crossing reverse quarter after the Tuskegee Airmen.

Maybe they can show the boats arriving in Jersey from the point of view of a single Hessian scout, just upstream of Trenton. What's German for "Uh oh."

 

So at this point, what are the odds of him signing this? Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if hes already clocked out for the year. Anyone wanna call his office and ask?

 

He may have already signed it and no one is talking about it. In the U. S. Treasury Department, the U.S. Mint isn't exactly the prime newsmaker or even among the top news releasers.

 

It's possible he may not even know he is supposed to make the decision. There have been 5 secretaries since the law was passed, is it possible no one told him? After all most collectors, who should be more in tune with this, don't know it. I'm sure the Secretary has a lot of things on his plate and something like this could easily have been overlooked.

 

I just searched the Treasury Department twitter feed and saw nothing. Not very scientific, I know, but if a piece of legislation was signed it seems likely they would have at least mentioned it....
