<p>[QUOTE="NOS, post: 1339587, member: 2098"]I should think not. Back in 1999 or 2000 I thought that all of the 1965-1998 style quarters were going to vanish with the introduction of the State Quarters so I assembled two rolls of them from circulation. Over ten years later and those quarters are still very commonly seen and found in circulation. Speaking in terms of composition, just look at how pure copper pennies are still found in high numbers from circulation and they were switched to zinc 30 years ago. Sure people (pointlessly) hoard them but they are still very easily found all these years later.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
