So I wonder when we can expect W quarters? ... Maybe a gold strike on top of things? Did you just say that aloud?  Do not give them any ideas!  |

maybe they could start issuing 90% silver bu ones as well. Oh and we could have another commemorative series on top of that. and oh yeah they could reopen the carson city and new orleans mints as well. then we could have 60-70 different quarters minted every year. |

While you are reopening old mints, don't forget about Charlotte and Dahlonega as well. Might as well go for the jugular.

Oh, I forgot. These could be gold plated (or maybe even 90% gold!).

And as long as they are making them just for collectors they could actually do that, plating them I mean.

Oh, come ON, guys. You don't think they should open a temporary mint in the Capital of each state for a special commem issue of that state's ATB? Bunch of grannies we've got here, to not think of that. (I should probably note I'm joking, before someone smacks me with a madhammer. Or a modhammer.) |

I think that the temporary mint should be in the particular state most unusual named city.
Hell, Michigan
Two Egg, Florida
I---------e, Pennsylvania
I'm sure there are other unusual named cities in other states.

Ghostrider, why not King of Prussia, PA? And here in AZ we could put it southwest of Williams--in the middle of Nowhere.

On the ATB you need to drag the press to the site being commemorated and that could be a problem because some of them are rather hard to get to. |

You guys forgot about the Manila mint in that was opened in 1920. I would like to see a M mint mark on some US coins |

If we are going to make coins in the Philippines, we might as well make them in china |

There were photos floating around facebook of flags used at 4th of July parades with gigantic MADE IN CHINA stamps on the poles. We agreed that had to be on purpose because there were atleast two other places they could of stuck the tag and been inconspicuous. Let alone the fact that this was Walmart selling American flags made in China.  |

I must admit that the "S" coins in my rolls are two to three grades higher (on average) than the real BU business strike "D" coins I get. My El Yunque and Hawaii "S" rolls were outstanding! The lava design on the Hawaii looks like a planchet rinse spill on MS-62 coins, but on an MS-65 or Proof coin...  |

So, what's the best way to get my hands on some s-mint circulating quarters? Are they all made for this year or is there one more to go?
