    With today's 2 boxes of quarters I was able to complete my goal of completing a full set of West Point quarters for myself and my 3 kids.

    I found my first "W" American Memorial Park quarters on 24 May. After that, I started searching at least 2 boxes a week. I found some cool stuff along the way including a sterling silver Daniel Carr designed Washington D.C. quarter, a few minor errors, and about half a roll of silver quarters.

    It was a fun hunt but also very time consuming. I have one more order of 2 boxes of quarters coming next week but after that, I think I am done searching quarters. I plan to move my quarter money into halves in order to hopefully rebuild my stack after my sell-off about 2mos ago.

    The worst part is I just mailed off 2 Idaho and 2 Guams in a trade for 4 Missions that I was sure I'd never see...Oh well.

    Without further ado, here is a full set of my West Point quarters:

    Sweet. I hope they will appreciate the effort that went into completing the set for them. Still going through tons of coins looking for these would have still been fun (for me at least).

    I plan on getting those 5 quarter plastic cases to put them in for each of the kids. I blew through so many 2x2 cardboard flips when I was pulling all the AMPs.

    Congrats and you saved yourself about $25.00 each as I see them selling for. Job well done.

    Meow just found Meow's first CRH W quarter. Meow's area does not get many of these, and this is Meow's first found in the wild!

    Nice to pull a set from the wild! It’s about the process furry...the result is an ancillary benefit for you and the kids. The side finds add to the interest and help to span the finds we are after. Especially silver finds.

    Nice finds! I haven't been able to hunt for a while. Hoping that some of those millions are still in circulation when I get back to it!

    I exercised my consumer muscles and acquired the first two. I do not expect to see one in the wild.

    Ditto for the first one (Lowell), traded for the next two (American Park & War In Pacific). Hopefully, can trade for the last two!

    Nice job, well done. @furryfrog02 I'm curious to know where you got your boxes from. With finding a Dan Carr and silver coins, I'm assuming they were from customer rolled.

    The Dan Carr was in a customer wrapped roll.
    All the W's and silvers came from boxes that my CU gets from Loomis every week. Those are all MWR.
