Circulated W's. Wishful thinking. Lol

Welcome to my life. In the 2 years I’ve been looking for west points my bank only had brand new rolls once and I could only get 10 rolls, but I did get some Ws from it. So after searching this long I’ve found (not counting duplicates) 4 of the 2019 designs missing the Idaho and I’ve only found one 2020 the Vermont. Best of luck to you though. Hope you find west points and silver.

On the Quarter Bank Box,
After 10 rolls- No W's. Just a NIFC. The 2015s Bombay Hook

Circulated W's. Wishful thinking. Lol

I was actually wondering about this term "circulation" when it comes to these W quarters. I guess technically, they are circulated. If the coins went from the mint to the coin rolling companies to the banks and have hit the commerce chain yet, are they truly circulated?

I guess it's the old narrative or an oxymoron; How can find an uncirculated coin............in circulation? If you find an uncirculated coin "in" circulation............it must be circulated!.........right?

You are talking semantics in my opinion. Instead of referring to the W quarters as Uncirculated and Circulated I use the terms new coin rolls and old coin rolls respectively.

The new coin rolls W quarters will be in much better condition since they have not been dispersed to the public and used to buy something. The old coin rolls W quarters were "circulated" in to the economy and thus will be more "damaged".

More semantics on my part...
I tend to think of rolls filled with MS coins as uncirculated no matter what. Since in my mind I go by the definition of MS, no wear from circulation (even if they are actually circulated). Coins can be in very low MS condition if they've been "circulated" amongst other coins quite a bit (like in coin vendor bins and rolling machines) but haven't experienced pocket wear and wear from being handled by hands and other surfaces.

There was a thread recently where we discussed can a coin be in MS condition if it has a fingerprint? The answer is yes. Because MS is about the coin's surfaces condition relative to having wear from circulation or just dings from other coins.

I have about 4 bank roll types I talk about in my mind's reference...
Mint Rolls - All MS always.
New Bank Rolls - Mostly MS and often just one year (but they come from coin vendors like Loomis so there is always the possibility of random conditions and years mixed in). It's not uncommon that I see a roll of all seemingly brand new 2020 for instance, with one random 2015 in there.
Circulated bank rolls - Could have anything from the coin vendor that got rolled up, including nothing but an order of coins sent from one bank branch and returned to the same bank branch. It could also have absolutely brand new coins just like the new bank rolls. My only 2021 Tuskegee quarter was in a roll of nothing but mostly older circulated quarters.
Vintage Bank Rolls - Rare but sometimes I'll get the occasional nice tight coin vendor roll from maybe the mid 90's if it's been sitting in a bank vault. Not really vintage but also definitely not new.

Found this

Exquisite one!


PCGS has this in their highest grade ms 68 for $900. I figure, this one has possibilities?

An even BRIGHTER Future?

Another box.

They are Circulated.
Still have 10 rolls left from the last box.

The best of the two boxes of home rolled Jeffs. Like the Lincoln’s the lustrous ones really pop when they come out. Suppose that’s true for all coins as is the excitement when you first see it.
One or two might be worth grading but most likely not.
Close but no cigar

Shining Beauties! Don't forget to check for those DDO's, 2004p's.

Extreme Finds

In previous box

This was found in a coin roll from the local market,
I asked for 2 rolls of penny's. Why? Who knows.
Found a 1982 small date, 3.1, Denver.

Finds in my lasted 2 half dollar boxes; 0 silver 30 NIFC's and 9 Proofs.

I'm only a couple rolls into my Saturday afternoon halves...
Any thoughts on what could cause a cotton candy like toning like this?!
Heat plus chemicals? It doesn't look like there is gunk on the surface at all...
No tricks or angels, this is how it looks!
1977 S...it was a proof! lol!
