Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 09/25/2013 1:59 pm I bought two PCGS graded Coins. Iowa P and D State Quarters. MS68 with Satin Finish I got them for under $10 bucks for both of them shipped. Did the Mint purposely mint "Satin Finish"? Or? Whats the deal with them. If you look at the price of a PCGS slabbed business strike MS68 Iowa Quarter the value is over $300 When I added them to my PCGS Registry it said the value was $8 each. Which I am sure is to do with them being a "Satin Finish I would post pictures but I do not have them in hand as of yet. Edited by Jayman931 09/25/2013 2:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 193736 Posts	Posted 09/25/2013 2:43 pm All US Mint Set coins from 2005 through 2010 had a satin finish. This means that any high grade coin without satin finish had to come from circulation (which means a smaller population leading to higher values). It is very easy to tell them apart, almost as easy as spotting a proof.

In 2011 they returned to the normal business strike finish used until 2004.
