<p>[QUOTE="Mr. Coin Lover, post: 606211, member: 16060"]Here is my take on this for what it is worth (nothing). The Puerto Rican Quarter has a very low historic mintage and it looks as though the Guam Quarter will be even less. But, rolls and bags of these are being sold by the mint bigtime. What that means to me is you may not see many of these in actual circulation, but there will never be a shortage for collectors due to the high volume the mint is selling to individuals in the rolls and bags. Prices will not be high because so many were bought by roll and bag.</p><p><br /></p><p>The nickel and dime also have a low mintage for the year, and they cannot be purchased directly from the mint as the Quarters and Prez Dollars in rolls and bags. So what most collectors will have to depend on is getting them at the banks unless purchased by someone lucky enough to have them for sale. By the time they can be found from bank rolls what kind of condition they will be in as we know will be excellent to very poor. </p><p><br /></p><p>Rare and hard to find is really not the same. Here is what I would do if I had a few rolls of each. I would sell them as long as the price remained very high. When the price goes down, which it will, I would hold on to the rest. Having a decent amount of these coins in BU condition 2 or 3 years from now would not be a bad thing in my opinion. If I had a roll or two of these that had been in airtites for 2 or 3 years I think I would be very happy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
