One Box at a Time
I decided there wasn't enough excitement in my life so I decided to spice things up. What's a coin collector to do? Yeah, I got a box of quarters to search through.
In case you didn't know, the US Mint is producing quarters at the West Point mint. Yes, 2 million of each coin minted in 2019 will have a W mint mark. Some collectors have been paying quite the premium for the coins even though they have no precious metals content.
I picked up a box at the local bank and chewed my way through it all in an hour or two. To my disappointment, I didn't find any silver or any W coins. I actually didn't even find a single 2019 quarter regardless of the mint mark. I found a super-shiny 1974 that wasn't silver. I also found a 2013 Missouri quarter that has no copper ring around the edge. It was minted at the Pennsylvania Mint, which isn't where the proofs were made, so I don't know what to make of this one. If you know what this coin's story might be, please let me know in the comments.
How has your weekend been thus far?
