These quarters were shinier then the rest!

hello, I noticed these quarters were really shiny when I was going through a jar of old change, could this mean they are made of a different material I’m very new to this. Would love to get some feedback, I have attached pictures below.

Not different material, just newer and less worn.

Welcome to CoinTalk ;-)

 

I'd just like to provide the feedback that "than" should be used instead of "then" when writing comparatively. Here are examples of correctly using "then" and "than":

"She is going to the store and then she is going to the park."

"He is older than his brother."

In summation, use "then" as a continuer in a sentence and use "than" when you compare something. Correctly using "than" and "then" will make you appear to be a stronger and more credible writer.

Thanks!

 

The quarters you have posted above are brilliant uncirculated. Furthermore, I'd save them if you are planning on doing an album in the future.

 

If they are shiny and haven't been polished, it's because they have retained
original mint luster. Which is what you see on a new coin before it circulates and gets worn, and the luster wears off.
See when you get a brand new 2019 quarter it will most likely be shiny.

 

I have New rolls, I cant bring myself to spend, the coins are fantastic looking. only worth 25 cents. to see production numbers next year, even knowing they will be worth 25 cents each for the distant future.

They are not BU. All circulated

 

They are just all AU.

 

haha, what are you talking about.

 

He is talking about the OP. And while I would have to look at the coins
individually through my loupe, 1 or 2 might be MS but basically, yes they are AU.
Your coin looks to be MS.

 

Oh ok, yea, Mine has certainly never been touched. thanks

 

These are Brilliant Uncirculated still in OGP. If they are not in OGP, all are almost circulated or just circulated.

 

Yes, agreed.

I buy them too.

 

I guess some have a different measure of bu, and mint. I consider these mint. not bu.

 

All coins that are in OGP are BU and in Mint perfect condition MS70

 

I like when a business strike, has a proof like mirror. I cant put them in a soda machine or use my thumb to shove into a folder, haha. even if they are worth 25 cents.

 

I don't open any of my coin rolls from the mint. I will be forced to put them all in airtite holders which is alot. I also start buying them in bags instead of rolls.

 

I have some projects, I sell some to exchange (buy) for silver. don't really make a lot. ill store 10 of each in airtight 1/4 tubes for no reason. that's the plan anyway, may buy another s roll of each when war in the pacific is available.

 

"All coins that are in OGP are BU and in Mint perfect condition MS70."

It's doubtful that even one coin would grade MS-70 but whatever.
They have still been handled (lightly). They have still been run through counting machines and rolling machines and they have bumped against each other. 70 from a top tier grading company is possible but unlikely. Most are probably 67-68's. (Or less.)
If they were all 70's they'd have to charge you $4000 a roll.
