<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 381863, member: 13650&quot;]I&#039;m not interested in collecting Washington quarters at this time, but for some reason I was going through my red book last night looking at them.&nbsp; I wanted to see what, if any, valuable quarters there were after 1964.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I ran across the 1983-P.&nbsp; It says they&#039;re worth 21.00 in MS-63.&nbsp;&nbsp; I thought, that was weird.&nbsp; With a mintage of over 673.5 million, it shouldn&#039;t be that scarce.&nbsp;&nbsp; Does anybody know why this is?</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Anyway, I went to lunch today.&nbsp; My only purchase in the last several days.&nbsp; I paid last.&nbsp; Got some change back.&nbsp; 3 pennies, one dime and a quarter.&nbsp; Unbelievably, the quarter I got was a 1983-P!&nbsp;&nbsp; Of course it isn&#039;t MS-63.&nbsp; It&#039;s been in circulation a while but it is in pretty good shape.&nbsp; I&#039;d give it a VF.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I still can&#039;t believe it.&nbsp; I guess it isn&#039;t that big of a deal but to have it happen like that was kind of neat.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
