    I just got off the phone with NGC customer service and she confirmed that they have not received the first submission of the July 4th quarter yet.

    After all these years my wife still thinks I'm sexy. Every time I walk by she says "What An Ass"

    That's different than it not having been mailed. It often takes them a week to log mail as received even after it is in house.

    All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.

    If someone lived around Sarasota, Florida I guess they could drive there and beat the mail service. Just sayin...

    Reminds me of when the Wisconsin error quarters came out. I learned the hard way about getting caught up in the hype of a newly found error or new low mintage coin. One of the only times in my life that I lost a sizeable amount of money on a coin or coins in this case. I will likely try to get one these down the road when they are about $25-$50

    Sweet! Please share the results with us. I live in Maryland and not as active as I was 7 years ago buying quarter boxes.

    I've only seen 1 NJ seller on ebay with the 4th july privy coin, I might just start selling some of these rolls to help my "very important" cause of collecting more coins :D

    I would also like to find the finest examples though of these designs as I do appreciate and like them!

    Just ordered a 2-roll set of 2026-P Declaration quarters on eBay (I assume all the privy marks are from Philly based on what Rob searched). If I find one, amazing. If not, I still get $20 and some fun without being at the whims of bank tellers.

    The 2020-W V75 Privy quarters are selling for less than $20 if you find someone who even wants one.

    $20 …. Or even $5 for a modern clad quarter ? Any guys older than 50 probably scratch their heads in amazement at this fact. There was a day when I scratched my own, for submitting modern coins. To answer mach19’s question: the batch I’ve seen came through a bank in Nebraska. The city of Ashland.

    Was in Philadelphia July 4th and visited the mint.

    Every purchase the mint gave one free quarter. We made two purchases. Later in the evening when the Privy Mark potential dawned on me. We checked the free mint quarters.

    We got two privy mint quarters.

    Wow! Nice gift!

    I am speculating but I think the distribution is supposed to be nationwide so that means ballistic bags from Denver would also have to be topped off with the special quarters.

    You can bet your life there is a back door at the mint , at Loomis , at some banks and the majority of businesses. Most businesses have preferred customers who get special privileges. Just a part of doing business.

    I have seen some of the Rob Finds Treasure youtubes. Kinda fun, in small doses. I did the math: if he sold all 161 of his coins at $650 each, that's $104,650. Not too shabby!

    I'm fairly certain that the original Director Hollis interview/press release said they were minted in Philadelphia without a mint mark.

    Im just concerned about the fallout. Right now he is getting premium money.
    How are all these collectors going to feel when they are selling for $100?
    I suspect Rob will have a few upset customers.
    I understand that its buyer beware but still.

    I want one for my grandson but my point here is that he may unknowingly be price gouging a few hundred people.
    Sure he's making money but that's just how I fell.
    I believe now that they are a $75 coin in a slab graded ms64.
    The coins he is listing do not look all that great. Maybe 63's.
