The ATS numbers this morning prior to launch are 53,235 on the rolls and 32,233 on the bags. Those bags are a tall order to move today. The rolls at 2 at a time may take some time. Will be interesting to watch this one.
They are not moving very fast. 20 minutes in and the ATS is at 35,896 on the rolls and 25,688 on the bags.
Over 32,000 roll sets left and already the note is "BACKORDER" Until September 2026
I cancelled my subscription when they jacked up the amount to be sold. For me they went from possibly hot to cold. I could see my heirs turning these in at a Coinstar. Still 30k+ available rolls. I don’t see them selling out anytime soon.

MAYBE when the ATS is lifted tomorrow, but those won't ship until mid- September.

JFK returning next year, with reverse designs for the next four years I don't find desirable, as also with the new quarter designs to come.
What new reverse designs?
Seems like the flippers and hoarders are all over this. Getting a 2-Century type set with Proofs, one-off finishes, etc might get interesting.

The reverse will feature Paralympic sports. Designs are yet to be selected by the Secretary.

UPS has my two 200 coin bag package, will be delivered on Friday. 😊
I hope you find some good examples in those bags!
I am rooting for Goldbully. He has came up with winners in the past. Best of luck to you Goldbully. Hopeful I will find a few winners in my bag. Also got 2 rolls for the grandkids.

The spigot is wide open yet there is barely a trickle flowing.
12:00 HHL2. Bags= 19,765 Rolls= 18,332
12:15 No HHL Bags= 19,626 Rolls= 18,076
12:30 No HHL Bags= 19,605 Rolls= 17.986
If they were reasonably priced I would have picked up a few for spending. At these prices, I decided to pass. I'll get a couple in my obscenely priced mint set and call it adequate.

The wait might be too long since you’re looking at September delivery. Dime bags due then, some more quarters…..the late fall looks to be backorder filling time for the Mint. Not much else going on
Weren’t these coins supposed to be pocket change, struck on copper-nickel clad planchets? The mint has commercialized the total Semi Quincentennial program. It’s a farce.

May the Farce be with you.
What farce? Have you gotten any Semi Quincentennial coins in change? None of the members of my local club have. These were supposed to be 250th celebration coins for the people, not just mint customers.
I wrote the mint about this. Their excuse is that the Federal Reserve distributes coins on an as needed basis. They told me I could buy them from the mint - at more than face value for coins that already earn seignorage for the mint operations.

I completely agree with you...as we close in to the first half of the year, not a single celebration coin has surfaced in the wild. I bought a bag of halves to gift each of my co-workers with the new Liberty Half for Christmas and you can bet every reaction will be, " What is this?" Coins for the people........right.

New designs in 2027-2030 just reenforces my opinion that the novelty on this coinage will dissipate or disappear relatively shortly. Won't be surprised if new reverses are released every year going forward afterwards too for as long as it's struck. Dime maybe slightly different but all of it is destined to be hoarded in huge number.
In other words, it's destined to be mostly forgotten, just like the flood of 21st century quarters and dollars which I doubt most collectors (never mind the public) can even remember.
@BillJones@Onastone
I got two of the 2026 quarters and 2026 dimes last Wednesday day at a gas station, the clerk had a drawer full of them. I still have them. I think my wife put the dime into one of our change cups.

Excellent!!! So glad they are starting to surface!
Rec'd my (2) sets of rolls just now. Setting aside all of the other conversation swirling around about these, it's a terrific looking coin in hand. At least they got that part right.

That clerk would be my new best friend, and I'd be divorcing my wife for irreconcilable differences 😆

They were probably not very impressive quality, the early grading numbers are terrible -- they must have been really handled with no care. I just hope that there are a couple nice coins in the mint set.
It's my first buy of rolls direct from the mint. I've sat the white box in front of my monitor, glance at it a few times each day, and wonder if I should open it. Decisions decisions.
Edit: Opened them 6/3/26. 14 Philly gems and only 6 Denver gems. Philly's were clean while 6 Denver's were spotted.

This item is not hot. I guess wait till tomorrow when the HHL2 is lifted.
After 40 minutes and ATS was rolls at 31,048 and bags at 23,527
After 60 minutes and ATS was rolls at 29,341 and bags at 23,315
Mine have shipped on a subscription
Way too many rolls available for it to be hot.
Ats: rolls at 25,128 and bags at 21,907
I cancelled my rolls sub about a month and one half ago. meh.
A bank roll suits me fine. The best examples, as we know, won't come from these rolls and certainly not from these bags.
What new reverse designs?

Subscriptions are shipping
The collectors and big boys will be able to get all they want. The flippers will eat anything they did not cancel.
Anyone who wants a few rolls can order now and get them delivered in September.
UPS has my two 200 coin bag package, will be delivered on Friday. 😊
I hope you find some good examples in those bags!
Thank you.
If I do I will post, but I doubt there will be anything really worth posting here.
I am rooting for Goldbully. He has came up with winners in the past. Best of luck to you Goldbully. Hopeful I will find a few winners in my bag. Also got 2 rolls for the grandkids.
Ditto Goldbully, would be bending a bit of reality finding anything worth posting though I'm in for both bags & rolls. Ask me why.
It’s the thrill of the chase .

Rolls coming Monday and bags on Tuesday .
I actually like the look of this coin.
I received my 2 roll set. Do not why I bought them. Now I have to cancel my subscription. Said no to the silver proof set.
Box of 20
Received my bag and rolls today. Glad to have them.

Anyone willing to share pics of their mint rolls?
I just opened a bag..... they look better than I thought they would have
image the best p&d. it'll be interesting to see what they are sending out now

Saw some posts on social media with rolls breaking open during shipping... yikes.
Same. Word is that they’re just tossed into the Mint container and roll around inside the box.
