[QUOTE="Gerard, post: 45722, member: 2763"][b]2000p[/b] You won't find them in circulation. Apparently plated coins were issued to vending machine manufacturers in 1999 in large quantities. They were issued to calibrate their machines to plated coins to be introduced in a few years time. In 2000, some additional coins were (apparently) minted and quickly retired. Some managed to get into the hands of dealers. Within a few months they hit about $100 on eBay until the mint released information relating to how rare they actually are. At that point, they keep climbing. I picked one up less than a year ago for $650. There's a MS64 one being sold online for $1500. The book value is about $2000. The quarters are still questioned. Depending on who you talk to, it appears they were either minted illegally or accidentally. The mint does not acknowledge their existence yet they have appeared at auction.[/QUOTE]
