We'll see.
My guess is two or three million people are going to start looking for these. This is a significant percentage of coin users but still low enough that coins can stay in circulation a while. Coins found early will be BU but limited in numbers. It is later that things start getting scoured by lots of people just to find lowly XF and AU examples. There won't be more than a few handfuls worn down to VF.
I think this is inspired. The problem with the W mintmark quarters is they were placed in right at the tops of bags in large numbers that could easily be removed with little effort. This means lots of BU's and the coins in circulation are usually found worn. But this time even Aunt Martha in Poughkeepsie has a fair chance of getting one at the A&P. This changes everything and it's not just a rare and valuable mint mark that makes it different but rather it's an entirely distinct design and type. This might be considered like a regular issue like Washington Crossing the Delaware or the other 250 year quarters.
Magic might not be such a bad word.
You bring up a great point with your 2 to 3 million people estimate...and one that I have already set into motion. Spread the word far and wide. I have my local business owner friends looking for them already, as well as telling all my family and my employees to be on the lookout. I even offered my employees a nice finders-fee if they can find one for me. (Older folks who remember "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" might remember what Henry Salt...Veruca Salt's father did to ensure she got a golden ticket) If my family finds any, they can continue to have me feed them. No reward for them. LOL!

If you check five rolls a week (and no one else does) you'll find one within ten years.
So you're telling me there's a chance...
Definitely! But it might not be worth searching after a couple years because most will have been found. There will be people who find two or three but most will be those who know how to improve their odds. Or can guess where to look. Some will just get lucky.
But, no hoards will exist except for purchased ones. Purchasing drives the price up dispersal drives it lower.
250,000 coins only seems insignificant when you're looking for a nice VG+ or better 1969 dime in circulation. They are out there and most will suffer attrition before anyone actually finds it. It will encounter a sharp edge under force or a bottleneck like a vacuum cleaner.
But these new coins are easier to spot than an anomalous circulating coin that at a glance is just like every other dime. It is not only new and shiny but it's an entirely different design. And It's very rare in BU starting the day they all go into circulation.
250,000 is a lot. It only seems low compared to mintages of 250,000,000 and the 60+_billion quarters in circulation.
They will almost all be found and there will be very low attrition. The '69 dimes. There may be nothing to save most of them.
Based on 250,000 being made and approximately 19,500 towns and cites in the USA, that averages out to approximately 13 per town/city if they are spread out evenly. Good luck!... 🤔😉

I expect the majority will almost certainly be removed from circulation fairly quickly. This is actually a pretty nice design, unlike the mostly mediocrity passing for circulating coinage now. The only reason I don't think this will happen is if the coin and mintage isn't widely known.
Your estimate looking for it might be low, as I think there are more than 3MM causal collectors now. It's going to be collectors like me who won't find it because I don't use it.
If they were truly MIXED in - I think you have a chance eventually of finding one.
If it was handled like the W Quarters and where we were told on top of every "ballistic" bag delivered there was a small quantity of W quarters also included separately - this led to siphoning off the W quarters by a few in the know and connected and no distributed the way intended.
When I used to coin roll hunt, I found the current year coins frequently didn't make it to my banks until mid to late year. Perhaps the Mint has found a way to get these into circulation more quickly. I know I will have to buy one from ebay and over pay since the rest of you will be bidding on the same coin.
One thing I'm sure of- I'm going to be disappointing a LOT of people at the ANACS table for the foreseeable future.
You Suck! Awarded 6/2008- 1901-O Micro O Morgan, 8/2008- 1878 VAM-123 Morgan, 9/2022 1888-O VAM-1B3 H8 Morgan | Senior Regional Representative- ANACS Coin Grading. Posted opinions on coins are my own, and are not an official ANACS opinion.
Surprised the mint has not gone full privy mode yet, especially with circulating coinage. Privy for the first day of mintage on each denomination. Random privy "inserts". Silver and gold bullion eagles as well as buffalo. Look at mint sewn bags and rolls like sports card packs with random inserts. Your subscription delivery for the annual silver set comes with a numbered and signed certificate or a redemption QR code for a special mint product. It's all trending the way of the sports cards industry.
These things could be a conditional rarity in MS-60 if a lot of people don't look for them. Eight or ten transactions and their luster is broken. Dependent on the factors (temporal, geographical, etc) of their release the odds of being saved by a collector can be remarkably low they could be prone to weeks in circulation before being discovered. A hundred transactions takes it down to an XF+ with significant retained luster. It looks like the shoulder and bell will take the brunt of the damage.
I would expect enough interest to find most of them before 250-300 transactions (VF)
I'm expecting the bulk of these coins to be struck in nice chBU and well struck. Maybe in this case "high grade" just means intact luster.
It will be interesting to watch. I wouldn't mind seeing them show up once in a while for years and years but I'm expecting them to get snapped up. If I were younger I'd go sniff one out when it was new.

That is a great idea, but the mint best be careful to not overdo it. Could kill the goose (who may already be limping a bit).
I may have missed this, but did they state how they would be released, when, if it's only through circulation, or can they be in rolls directly from the mint?

There would be fewer in circulation if they marketed them directly. You want them in rolls from the Mint from pure selfishness because it would increase your odds of finding one, not because it would put more into circulation for the general public.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
I can't possibly see how anyone is going to find these in change anytime soon if you can barely find the new designs in rolls.
I agree. Heck, when looking for unmarked/clean, crisp bills to go on a safari (they only want unblemished bills) it is darned near impossible to find them……even at my local PNC banks. Out of 100 $5 notes the teller and I MIGHT find eight or nine acceptable bills. Just wonder where all this newly printed currency is going as even in the southern part of Florida they can’t get fresh new bills. I asked about new rolls of coins at the bank last week and they said they never get them anymore. Strange…..🤔
It depends on when banks order quarters in the regions that receive them. I had to order boxes because my CU had no plans to order quarters in the near future.
I spoke with one of my friends that works in a bank, I asked her if she ever sees new boxes of quarters come through, as this year we have five new Semiquincentennial quarters. She was surprised to hear about new quarter designs, didn't know anything about them. She also remembered ordering new boxes for customers when the first state quarters came out and said she'd try to see if she could get some new boxes for me. I always thought you couldn't tell if the box was full of new or old quarters-all the sealed boxes look alike. I've seen three types of boxes, a tall narrow box which usually has nondescript quarters, a basic box that usually has Loomis, and the holy one (the top is riddled with little holes to peek into and see your coins).

Good point. Do you recommend going in person and talking to the branch manager about how I want to search rolls? To make sure they are cool with it?
They can force these into circulation very quickly by just putting quarters into storage and releasing only the new design. There is no existing mechanism.

I personally wouldn't. Your hobby costs them money on both ends. It costs them to order coin and costs them to ship coin back to the processor.
My advice is to stay as much under the radar as possible. For example, don't be the one to always fill up the coin machine.

if you are going into a bank wanting boxes, then talk to the head teller
if you are talking about a coin machine dump bank then don't talk to anyone. so your coins don't come back to you (reboxed by the bank's coin service) ask who they get their coins from. the take them to a dump bank that uses a different one

The Federal Reserve is still charged with the distribution of coins. Up until the mid-'60's they did most of the work themselves. but now the vast bulk of it is contracted out to counting houses like Loomis who must follow FED policy, protocols, and procedures. If the FED told them to temporarily suspend stock rotation they would comply just as they did when the states quarters came out. Of course there are complexities here and it might well impose some costs to the counting houses and they need reimbursement.
For the main part though the system is stable so if you put old quarters into storage the new ones will flow more quickly into circulation. They could practically be sucked into circulation.

I did find (1) 1942 Silver Quarter too though
I can't possibly see how anyone is going to find these in change anytime soon if you can barely find the new designs in rolls.
The bicentennial coins were out already in circulation by the barrel full, none on the semisesquintenial stuff. Just saying
