I received notice from the mint, that due to demand my subscription was changed from 3 sets to one set. Anyone else get this ?

I got the same notice last week - but I was reduced from 3 to 2 sets. EDIT: Just went back and checked, I'm still subscribed for 2 sets, the there is still a HHL of 'NONE' for the 3-roll sets. So I'm guessing if you want more, you may have to get in lone on 'sale day' and fight the crowd.

They changed me from 3 to 2 also.
Oh well, nothing can be done about it.

The thing is I had 2 of my 3 (hope to purchase) 3-roll sets up for sale on ebay - one already sold, one didn't I'm glad I was able to cancel the sale of he other one before it sold and leave me with nothing for my own collection.

Well, my 2 3-roll quarter sets have been ordered through my subscription. So I'm safe on the one I already re-sold on the Bay. (and one to keep in my collection.)

Is there much of an interest in this? I don't see it myself.

I enrolled in the American Women's Quarter 3 Roll set on September 2, 2022. I believed this to be for 2023 and beyond, and was pleasantly surprised this morning to find I have an order processing for the three roll set of Anna Mae Wong Quarters. Given that more than 300,000 of the San Francisco quarters were struck, and given that virtually all will survive in mint state, I do not see a money maker in the long term. I bought these to have these for my collection in any case.

The mint website wouldn't ever acknowledge my click of the add to bag button. That's a new one for me

My take on the S business strike US Quarters is that those that are circulated but still in decent shape should have much higher value than those held by collectors. The US Mint began issuing rolls and bags of the ATB S business strike Quarters in 2012 and then in 2021 discontinued it for the Washington Crossing Quarter only to resume with a far lower mintage with the American Women's Quarters. With the ATB S Quarters mintages ranged from about 750,000 - 1.5 million. As has been noted the mintages for the American Women ones are running 300,000 - 500,000. Unlike the American Innovation Dollar coin business strikes which can be on sale theoretically until the series ends (which should be about 2032). The US Mint is having a shorter selling window with the American Women's Quarters which also seem to be allowed to be on sale for at most 1 - 1.5 years (but with the high demand weeks to months). Most collectors hold onto an extra roll --- and why not? They sell well when no longer for sale and are extremely difficult to find in circulation. Even the ATB S business strike Quarters are difficult to find in circulation (I have found only one in about low XF condition). The same is going for the American Innovation Dollar coins from 2020 and 2021 which I have seen individual rolls sold in coin magazines for $109. However, how many S business strike Women's Quarters have you seen in circulation or ATB ones? Except for 2019 American Innovation Dollar coins that can be found in circulated condition once in a great while it is very difficult to find such coins (circulated) from 2020. Add in that the market for low populations of well-circulated classic coinage has grown more lucrative the past 10 years, I would think a circulated ATB, American Women's quarter and American Innovation Dollar coins since 2020 in circulated condition would have a nice premium. I think this will be true int he short to medium term but not so in the long term as more collectors decide to spend low grade uncs to allow room for more valuable coins. One could possiblyt say this is true too for those years Kennedy halves were not put into circulation and Native American dollars since about 2013. Would welcome thoughts on this.

As I am considering adding business strike "S" mint US quarters to my Washington quarter collection taken from circulation, I find this post to be very helpful. It's my understanding that these "S" mint quarters were only available from the mint in bags and/or rolls at a premium price and never released to general circulation. Also, my research indicates that, as coinnnewcomer1 states, this practice was started by the mint in 2012 and, as such, didn't include ATB Quarters produced in 2010 or 2012. Considering that finding these quarters during the course of searching bank rolls seems unlikely, it looks like I've got my work cut out for me.
