    Hey @ZoidMeister ...Regarding this QuarterMaster character :happy: ...perhaps I should've asked the obvious question to begin with, "Does QuarterMaster perhaps live in the Denver area?" lol.

    I find no "QuarterMaster" or "Quarter Notes" in any of the forums...You've intrigued me. Is it perhaps someone I might've met at a coin show during this year?
    Wondering now if it's maybe a local Dan Carr kinda character?! :joyful:

    I just read @lordmarcovan 's "The enigmatic “QuarterMaster” from Quarter Notes, Ltd. (whose secretive identity remains unknown to me to this day)..." cointalk.com/threads/quarter-notes-giveaway-10-counterstamped-quarters.398684/#post-8463350

    Because I would argue I now officially have a small unintentional collection of these going :hilarious:

    Pulled last night, this time from a customer roll! Again here in the Denver area.

    That is definitely a known QuarterMaster creation. It seems all of his mystery coins are mailed from Ft. Meyers Florida but go out to recipients nationwide.

    That one was obviously returned to circulation.

    Every single one I've gotten was returned to circulation lol...or maybe intended for circulation by the QuarterMaster himself :p

    I’ve never ran into a single one of his counter stamped coins.

    Cool to find one in the wild. The only ones I’ve seen are the ones he’s sent in the mail.

    Here are all my other (possibly) QuarterMaster finds in the wild from during the last year here in the Denver area, including non-quarters.

    Seems like a dumb question lol but has the QuarterMaster been known to "label" any other denominations of coins?

    How long has this QuarterMaster been at this?

    I've got to assume that ".sapheads" is one.
    Are any of the other's known QuarterMaster pieces in my finds below?


    Do I get some CRH respect for finding a few in the wild after 40something years of searching and collecting?! :cool:
    Ok...who do I have to buy dinner for to get on to the QuarterMaster's mailing list?! Do I have to unknowingly stumble into this person at a coin show and buy a nice coin from him/her? :p

    You don't have to buy anyone dinner. I'm sure you'll be on it soon enough.

    No, never any other denominations other than quarters. BTW, the numbered coins aren't his.

    First I've seen that one. It must be an early piece.

    Great find.

    Probably the first or nearly so. It was the first one I ever got but on an Arizona State Quarter.

    Ummmm, I don't know what's happening but I'm enjoying it!
    Went to my Chase this morning and got 20 rolls.
    Again, just now... :joyful: Have you seen this one before? I have to assume it's QuarterMaster work again.

    Fun fact: I moved to Colorado about 30 years ago from VERY close to the Mianus exit off of I-95 in Connecticut.
    Also, it's actually pronounced, my-Ann-us, to keep things educational :joyful:
