I have an. 82 p but when I use my andrAndto take a picture of it, it looks pretty beat up. Just looking at it by hand, it looks pretty decent. I just started collecting so I'm working on a coin magnifier now.
Why would the lines have to line up? What If it was hit from the top first , slide down, then pushed towards the S which stopped it, then lighter slide down the coin. Don’t limit “damage” just becz it has to be “perfect”damage as then how is it an error if it’s not a perfect error?? Next time you see a car crash, evaluate whether it was a "perfect" car crash or not. If it's not perfect does that mean it didn't, or couldn't, happen? 99.99% and more of things you'll see is damage. Damage is an unlimited undefined term. Whereas Errors are Limited.
Got my circulated version of ATB quarters. However, these rolls are not going to be circulated to the public PDS They will be hidden forever.
Now they are sealed and will be preserve forever. Man I didnt even bother to opened them. The lady from the US mint told me that the coin rolls for them dont even get touch by hand. The machine even rolls,box and label them. The lady even said that they are better than the bags because they dont get bang, ding and rub against coins in bags.
This just another cheaper way for me to acquire uncirculated mint state and only the US Mint has it. Im planning to buy more next week.
I know it's just a strange coincidence and that eagle reverse quarters still account for more than a third of the quarters in circulation but I checked the ones on my desk that I've received in change the last couple weeks and only three of nineteen (16%) are the old style. Curiously they run about 61% in circulation but 67% in the change I usually get! For some reason they just tend to give me shinier coins! I'll be surprised if they get down to 25% by August, 2021. Even this will require a continued strong economy. It was so much fun watching these get into circulation it just never even occurred to me it might be more fun seeing them go or that I'd live to see it. At some point almost all the old quarters will be common date and low grade but this is going to take a while. As I said I'm guessing 2028 and the incidence will be about 8% at that time.
I plan to hit 5 different laundrymat in my area and will drop $20 or more each laundrymat next weekend. Will post some results and pics
In los angeles area by my work. I have hit 4 regular places and sometimes I end up very few or sometimes empty. I had to go to different city on my way home just to get some quarters.
The numbers on the right are the minted numbers by each mint. The group on the left are my actual numbers. I should have omitted those mint numbers.
I know the numbers on the right are the minted numbers. thought you might be trying to collect ALL of them.
Yes I do but that is impossible. Loose coins (1,238) on the left and Rolls(34) on the right each separated by Year and Mint.
If I find some silver thru my hunting it's ok but I'm not going to pay a premium on the silver Washington Quarters and I can live without them. Moving forward only
