Message:: [QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3567197, member: 77814"]The US MINT, if you follow them, has started new programs to increase exposure of coin collecting; for kids, educators, collector clubs, etc. The W is just ONE of many programs they have been offering.  Just go to <a href="https://catalog.usmint.gov/product-schedule/2019/?_ga=2.44639844.1341536480.1560435370-1938086692.1560435370" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://catalog.usmint.gov/product-schedule/2019/?_ga=2.44639844.1341536480.1560435370-1938086692.1560435370" rel="nofollow">https://catalog.usmint.gov/product-schedule/2019/?_ga=2.44639844.1341536480.1560435370-1938086692.1560435370</a> and you can see many of their offerings from Space (Apollo 11) to small kids (like the "Rocketship" and "Explore and Discover coin set." So the "W" quarter is just part of that initiative. I don't understand your statement ...  "Don't we have enough coins to deal with"  ... the US MINT is a business.  Not only do they make coins for "commerce" which for some reason people collect, but they also make coin sets specifically for collecting and also offer other programs, etc in relation to selling product for coin collecting.[/QUOTE]
