Looks like somebody responded to, “If you really think it’s that great, go ahead and get it graded.”

    Outstanding reverse design. Wasn't it intended to be the new standard look for the quarter before Congress authorized the American Women quarters to begin in 2022?

    It's the only recent quarter to not have "S" mint circulation strikes.

    Should it be considered part of the series that ran from 1932 to 1998? The obverse is the same, it was struck for circulation, and the 1976 quarter with the Bicentennial reverse is already considered to be part of that series.

    My 21st Century type set is up to date, but I let someone else pay the grading fees.

    The obverse is not the same. The date looks so ugly and tacky.

    Two collectors are now buried in those!

    I believe it is technically the current circulating design of US quarters.

    Let's see if they remember that when all the special programs are complete. ;)

    Which is more likely to occur first?
    A.) All the special programs are complete.
    B.) The quarter is discontinued because inflation has rendered it virtually worthless.

    Listed on our local version of eBay with a reserve of NZ$25 (US$14). According to CoinFacts, these have sold for as little as $1.

    The slab scan tells you the holdering was done in Asia or Europe.
