Finally: A West Point Quarter (or 9)

Me too. I had a lot of ear infections as a kid and still get them occasionally. Miserable time.

Both of my ears are plugged at the moment. Never experienced this before. You're correct, it's miserable. I'm trying to avoid another doctor as I've seen too many of them this year thanks to those kidney stones. Still feeling with that. Can barely hear out of my right ear and about 40% out of the left.

 

eBay time !!!

an Ender to tease the bidders !!

 

figures, my banks switched from loomis to nf string last year...

 

I thought that was just the paper company. Not the actual rollers.

 

no, they are both cash handling companies, they roll the coins, the coin counting machine at my banks are owned by nf string, when the armored truck makes its weekly delivery to the bank it also empties the counting machine. i tried to get some foreign coins out of the machine once and the teller told me that once a coin is in it, it belongs to nf string an they cant touch it..

 

Interesting. Learn something new every day

 

banks/CUs rent & get them fully "managed" many of those coin counting machines. Thus the bank/CU doesn't own them, can't open them, etc. Of course, they can do the work themselves too.

I picked up a sealed box yesterday from the same bank that I found the 9 American Memorial "W"s in on Friday. This box was over half-full of 2018P Pictured Rocks. I didn't expect anything. Imagine my surprise when this popped out of a roll. There were only ~15 Lowell quarters in the whole box. All were "P"s except this one. Brings my total "W" haul for the weekend to 10 (1 Lowell, 9 American Memorial).

 

congrats

 

Is PCGS offering a reward for 1st or early submission on the American Memorial W?

 

IDK. I assume they had already been found...
yeah...already found

Hey, there’s still time to get the early pedigree certification!

 

I don’t feel the need to pay them to put it on a piece of paper

 

BTW, I am more than a little jealous that you have found both Ws.

 

I would take your constant source of halves over my Ws any day.

 

I guess we always want what the other guy has, lol.

Naw, covet all you want. If you're nice, I may let you touch em

 

Now you're just bragging! lol
