<p>[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 392666, member: 307"]Something I think mentioned here but seemingly forgotten is the fact that (as alluded to by OKC) the Philadelphia Mint was shut down during the end of production of the Tennesee quarters and for the beginning of the Ohio quarters. This by no means made them rare, in fact, the mintage for both coins ended up being relatively normal, (with Ohio P being a bit low) it did however, seem to mess with the channels that these coins became available, and as demand rose (even slightly) for these quarters over other states, a premium became attached. Yes, the Elvis quarters contributed to the large attrition of MS TN quarters, but there is a coin like that for almost EVERY state, and the Elvis ones have just become more visible. I think as with most modern coins, the only reason that ANY of these quarters carry ANY premium is speculators driving the price up. </p><p><br /></p><p>I belive that these coins will be about as valuable as any mid 50s thru today modern coin.
