<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 29128, member: 68&quot;]I would guess that either the prices are low enough and the demand low enough that they aren&#039;t worth the trouble of selling or more likely it&#039;s caused by the boomerrang effect.&nbsp; Things get saved in huge numbers until people come to believe there are too many of them and they cut back on them.&nbsp; Concurrently demand slacks off waiting for lower prices until it suddenly tries to get filled and there is less supply than believed.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I suspect the latter because they are making only about 225 million of each now days.&nbsp; There are an awful lot in circulation and one has to believe most of the recent ones are still at the fed in the pipeline.&nbsp; This barely leaves enough for each collector to have one and obviously there are many hordes.&nbsp; If this is the case then watch for higher prices temporarily as the supply gets evened out a little.&nbsp; Those which don&#039;t exist at the fed may have permanent price increases.&nbsp; I&#039;m not suggesting anyone go out and buy the recent states issues.&nbsp; If anything, I&#039;d suggest a selling opportunity may be approaching.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The CA quarter will be released late in January and should cause a flurry of excitement.&nbsp; While no regular issue state quarter will be scarce or rare in unc, don&#039;t assume they&#039;ll all be distressingly common or that demand won&#039;t outstrip the supply.&nbsp; Remember that these are approaching the point of representing half the coins in circulation, and all these coins are no longer BU.&nbsp; Note that the earlier issues are starting to look pretty ratty quite often and that nice pieces are not so often seen anymore.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
