My Memory is getting very Weak anymore. I think I saw a line, somewhere that mentioned that Mintages of the latest W Quarters was about 2 million of each. Anyone remember or know anything about that?
How about those unwanted S Mint Quarters? I seem to recall Mintages struggling to stay above 1 Million. It's bad when your memory is going away.
I also remember a time when there was " or seemed to be" an interest in Mintages of US Coins.
🤔
Anyway. Anyone know about Mintage Levels , demand, and Values of S and W Mint Quarters ?
One Day I might forget the different between the Golden Dollars and Gold Eagles. Watch for me at Christmas Time.
Hopefully loud Bell ringing will drive me away from those Red Kettles.

The 2019 W’s are 2m each design, 5 different coins for a total of 10m across the W set.
I have not seen any in commerce yet.... Though one forum member recently posted about a 2020 W (with privy) he received in change...I have been watching for the 2019 W's, but so far, nothing. Even have a couple of store clerks watching (not sure how careful they are
)...Cheers, RickO
Well, thanks for the info. I just found a reference myself
"The designs and specifications of the special 1-ounce .9167 fine gold coin are the same as the standard Proof American Eagle gold $50 coin, except the limited-edition release bears a symbolic V75 privy mark on the obverse.
The V for Victory privy mark is in the field to the right and below the olive branch grasped in Liberty’s extended left hand.
The V75 is raised within a recessed cartouche shaped like the Rainbow Pool that is part of the World War II Memorial at West Potomac Park in Washington, D.C.
The same privy mark appears on the five 2020 America the Beautiful quarter dollars struck at the West Point Mint with the W Mint mark and released into circulation with quarter dollars struck for commerce at the Denver and Philadelphia Mints.
The 2020-W quarter dollar production is restricted to 2 million of each of the five designs.

Seems to me a person might be better off just ordering some S minted Quarters .... depending on mintage....... and market values.
