    Cool. So will the actual coin be encapsulated upside-down with the reverse showing? Or does the other side have a different label format to show that too?

    I would think the people who like all their slabs to look the same might be unhappy with a slab that has the label on the bottom.

    It's not. Here's some more pictures to help better understand. When you turn around a PCGS lab with a special label, and position it so that the reverse is upright, the label is in the bottom. But like someone else said you can pick how you'd like it, too

    Neat contest.... I can imagine your have to get a bunch of rolls from a distributor? Or between this and across the street are people with connections going thru boxes? No clue, never a roll guy but I'm sure there are ppl with connections and know how

    Connection with a bank manager is the best I guess but for those without connections just go to your local bank and buy boxes of quarters and search the Jefferson rolls.

    Probably have better luck looking through quarters ;) ... But if you get coon rolls you'll likely just get rerolled old ones right?

    Had to reread your comment twice to decipher it correctly!🤣😂

    Banks do get sealed quarter boxes and for the immediate future you want to search the boxes of new coin rolls that are all Jefferson quarters in the box. If they aren't all Jefferson I wouldn't waste my time with the rolls. 😎

    Worst autocorrect ever. Omg.

    I went and asked for a few qtr rolls and didn't dare ask if they had new distributor ones... So as not to be a pain.... Just took whatever. All old rerolled ones.

    a couple of people walked into the shop with five rolls of the new quarters on Thursday, last week (7-2-26). I told them to take one and list it on eBay. Then, text me a link to the auction. Could have probably made them happy giving $20 per roll, but/and....
    Reading the past couple of posts, I should have taken a different approach. They were both kind of excited to try eBay. And they also work at the bank. Can’t think of a better job for a collector or searcher.
