What a haul. I see several raw completed sales on ebay for $650-$950 each and groups of 10 for $5k. Unbelievable. |

Not a chance, I'm sad to say.
If I asked my Credit Union for a box of Quarters, they'd look at me like I was an alien.

What a stroke of luck!
Also, so much for randomly distributing them.

Not a chance in he-double-hockeysticks that is just a random occurrence. He knows someone.

If this is true I am going to be very upset! He has to know somebody.

US Mint press release about these quaters - https://www.usmint.gov/news/press-r...nce-quartersRandomly mixed in with other 2026 Declaration of Independence Quarters, these 250,000 special "July 4" quarters will be made available to banks and financial institutions nationwide in time for the Fourth of July. Does not sound that random to me if one person found that many. |

Well, Guy At The Mint, I'll be happy to search for one. Only trouble is that 2026 is more than half over and I still haven't found a single 2026 coin in my change, much less one of your special quarters.
I asked at my bank and they said other customers who are coin collectors have expressed the same frustration.

I'm pretty disappointed with the whole rollout of the 2026 coins.
You'd think the mint would coordinate a nationwide distribution of all the coins, but instead it's the same localized 2019/2020 nonsense.
This could have been the year to spark a whole new generation of collectors, but I think it might end up being the last straw for many longtime enthusiasts.

He has to know somebody. I've been saying this was going to happen since this "distribution" was announced. Shades of what happened with the "distribution" of the first two coins in the 2019 W quarter fiasco. The mint trusted the armored carriers back then to "sprinkle" the coins into the counting machines. That didn't happen. They "sprinkled" them right to their friends, family and cohorts. The last 8 coins in the W releases were added in to the Ballistic Bags at the mint. Much better distribution occurred. You give people a way to cheat the system some will cheat it. |
