<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mynamespat, post: 3051745, member: 83738&quot;]Quarters get worked hard- change given, vending machines, etc .&nbsp; Thus circulating quarters tend to get destroyed.&nbsp; It&#039;s extremely difficult to find quarters from circulation older than 5-10 years old that haven&#039;t been thru the wringer.</p><p><br /></p><p>Besides, there are very few dates that aren&#039;t readily available in high grades.&nbsp; If I want to spend some money, I can very easily obtain very nice (or avg nice) looking coins at very cheap prices for many dates.&nbsp; If I want to gamble, I can go buy most date&#039;s mint sets at relatively little mark-up over the coin&#039;s face value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t get me wrong- I still pull nice looking quarters when I see them.&nbsp; It just isn&#039;t very efficient and I doubt many of the coins I&#039;ve pulled will ever be considered collectible by today&#039;s very high standards for MS coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
