<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Spark1951, post: 26597581, member: 90692&quot;]Well…I live 1,087.15 miles (as the crow flies) from the West Point Mint, and I have not ever found a “W” mint mark coin.&nbsp; As a matter of fact, I have also never seen one that wasn’t a photograph nor held one in my hand.</p><p><br /></p><p>I’m unsure if these astounding facts mean anything one way or another.&nbsp; It may only underscore just how difficult they are to find out of circulation.&nbsp; But that doesn’t mean they are a critical coin for one’s collection nor does it reflect on the coin’s desirability towards a collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you want one for a collection they can be acquired fairly easily but common sense dictates one should not expect to find one from circulation.&nbsp; I suppose a rabid collector could spend all his time coin hunting for them out of circulation but they wouldn’t have any kind of normal life…imo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
