[QUOTE="cladking, post: 1706042, member: 68"]God only knows. 1924 cents were considered highly collectible. People had stood in long lines to get '09-S VDB cents and the 1924 issue was far more widely available meaning people didn't need to stand in line. Many of the 1924 issues that were saved had to be spent for food and necessities during the depression but still many survived. As the penny boards became popular in the '30's people searchesd pocket change for nice older issues and plugged them into the boards. 1973 quarters were considered debased junk that no one collected. As the years went by nothing has really changed except there are a few today who seek them. But it's too late for almost all those coins made for circulation because they are low grade or culls. Now days finding nice 1924 cents is easy and a couple dollars will buy an XF. Even though it's far more common than an XF '73 quarter you can get the latter for a small premium. This is just the way it is.[/QUOTE]
