<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mrbooboo, post: 2628117, member: 84749&quot;]Hello.. I have been Searching for more info on the 1999 Delaware State Quarters P. Mint, that Where in fact Struck on Experimental metal.&nbsp; Approximately 15 where struck of the Sacagawea planchet the coin did Not come out looking really gd at all.. however around 2008. Three of these where sold for $3,000 $6,000 and one for $10,000. They also struck another type of Experimental metal... Mostly this quarter was struck with Nickel alloy No Copper Core at all.. No copper at all.&nbsp; The reason I know this much... Is cause I found one recently it&#039;s in very very nice condition.&nbsp; I got it from a roll of quarters from a store.&nbsp; They where sitting in a draw I asked the lady if I could buy a roll she replied Sure. I returned home later put the roll in my hand.. I pushed the quarters out to see if I happened to land a silver quarter. ?&nbsp;&nbsp; And I was like Yes... a silver quarter&nbsp; &quot;Thinking that was what I had&quot;.. I was blown away when I realized it was a State quarter,&nbsp; the 1999 Delaware State Quarter minted in Philadelphia.&nbsp;&nbsp; I started researching it and that was all the info I could find.&nbsp; Imagine having 1 of possibly 15 Quarters ever made with an experimental alloy from the U.S. Mint.&nbsp; I&#039;m very surprised that there is not much info on this subject even though the Mint confirmed they did this, or That Collectors are not seeking them out.&nbsp; The 1st State hood quarter on experimental metal.&nbsp; But then again.. the 1943 Copper penny started the same way.&nbsp; Or close.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
