A good friend asked me to find (buy) him a few and to be honest I haven’t seen any yet at the FUN show
Now I know there are a few sales on eBay and another TPG had a contest for first one certified but at moment considering a release of 250,000 pcs it’s been crickets
So for fun and giggles. What do you think these will be worth a year from now? Post your guess and we can revisit this next July 4th 2027 and see who was the smartest (or luckiest guess)

What condition?
Circ, under $100. MS64 or above, over $100.
Now ask me about 2 years from now.

Good point. Let’s say xf (which I think will be majority) and MS63
Slow to circulate because most people use debit/credit cards. From what I've seen most of them will be picked up from the banks and sold.
Whether you think you can or, think you can't, you're right.
250 000 pieces....there are not that amount of collectors who will want one so prices will most likely be stable and lower in a year from the current hype.
Still cool the mint did this but 250 000 pieces is still a lot.
Liberty Seated Half Dollars
I find it difficult to believe that the majority of ANY 2026 dated coins will ever naturally reach XF.

now that the initial finds have gone for about 1000, they'll finish about what an individual issue of a W quarter is
With every roll searcher looking I highly doubt that the majority will grade under MS much less XF. I have no idea what they will be worth, only worth 25 cents to me, guessing around $250 in a year for BU examples, under $50 in 5 years.

Ill guess $100 for a 65 $150 for a 66.

Stable at $80-$150 long term in my opinion.

Personally, I will not own one unless I get it in change or CRH (Coin roll hunting). Most classic silver commemorative half dollars have considerably lower mintages(with quite a few below 10,000), are silver and can be found at very reasonable cost. I would spend my $600 on gold, silver or early copper coins.
Most of these coins will be found in AU-Gem BU condition. I do not see the prices rising anytime soon.
I think that will be the case. Enough case hunters will end up with piles of hundreds of these that will get submitted that will eventually deluge the market. MS67s will probably be worth $400 though.
my guess- MS-62 or MS 63- $75; MS-64 = $100, MS 65- $150 and MS-66 - $250. I would like to add one of these to my set - just to say I got one. That's it Of course these prices are TPG.
I'm guessing $50-100 after the dust settles in a couple years.
RIP those paying $400-650.
There are two million W minted quarters per 10 designs. That’s 20 million “W” mints over the course of 2 years. This Jefferson design has millions minted but only 250,000 with Privy
Am listing them daily for a collector who experienced a lot of “hate correspondence “ via another venue just for scoring several. As always, time will tell. My guess
Next year : AU 58: $100
MS 63: $225
Under $100 for raw specimens.

Depends. If these early coins grade well, a 66 or 67 might still be worth that. Early discovery label, maybe.
If it's worth $500 to someone, so be it.

In fairness to @MsMorrisine they stated their opinion based on one individual W quarters release which was 2 million not all the releases totaling 10 million.
However, I must fact check them on the initial sale prices of the July 4th privies. On Ebay they were over $4000, then $2500 and have been dropping steadily to the current $400 range with an occasional sale just below $400
I find it ironic that these July 4th privy are being dismissed by many on here just like many did with the W quarters. Predicting they are undesirable to collect or the predictions of the selling price for BU raws will drop to below $50 is wrong in my opinion.
6 and 7 years later the W quarters in raw BU condition are still selling for $10 on the low end and as much as $40 on the high end with most averaging close to $20 and there were 2 MILLION of each for a total of 10 MILLION W quarters. There are only 250,000 July 4th privy quarters.
I believe there are far more than 250,000 USA quarter collectors in the world so these will still be desirable and sought after for many years to come.
I agree there definitely is an initial flooding of the market by the lucky few finding monster boxes containing hundreds of the July 4th privies.
The distribution plan by the Mint management team has proven to be poorly executed by their staff and this has resulted in many boxes containing hundreds of privies. To my knowledge this NEVER happened with any of the 2 million W quarters releases.
Initially I incorrectly predicted prices would not drop below $500. I never imagined one collector would find over 800 in one box or many others would find hundreds.
Short term, I have no clue how low prices will fall but I will go on record with my prediction for July 4th 2027 that the BU coins will be $150 or higher and it won't surprise me if they exceed the $500 mark!
Would it fit in the same boat as the 2004 D Wisconsin Extra Leaf High variety? Or is the Wisconsin tougher?
Apples and oranges. One is a die variety. The other is, arguably, a student type.
