    I think I'd lead with that 70-S rather than the 2025. ;) Received my first mayflower qtr yesterday.

    :o I can't remember the last time I even used cash for a transaction and got change back!

    I use cash for all small <$20 purchases. Just get to handle change like in old days.

    Nothing like handling real money.

    For no particular reason, all of 2025 and thru today, I’ve kept any 2025 coin that I got in change on my desk at work. This is all of them. I use cash to pay for lunch during the work week, and for a quick trip to the corner store for milk or a soda, etc.

    Aside from quarters, I'm down to needing just 2 each 2025-P & -D dimes and 2 2024-D nickels to be caught up with them thru 2025. Then I can focus on 2026's and "finishing-off" much of my active collecting. Can't understand WHY it's taking me so long to find the 2025............

    Quarters are a whole different thing altogether - - taking me FOREVER to find most any of the 2025's around here..... :(

    I haven’t received any cents in my change in the last month. They round it out to a nickel.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Got the nickel in change last week - first of the new coins I've seen. Came across the dime & quarter as gifts at a coin show this weekend.

    Lot of people selling the dime/quarter/half coinage for a premium right now. I see it like the bicentennial coinage. In a couple years, people will likely care VERY little.
