Yes the two roll sets will cost allot to get them all.

So no banks will be getting rolls of these?

If that is the case then maybe you could sell your extra from the rolls but with postage and mailing would be allot of work for 10 years.

I think I will stick to getting mine in an extra uncirculated coin set I then also get my Kennedy half I need and all the other coins minted for the year.

I also am thinking of maybe getting all the 3 ounce coins if they are sold at spot from bullion dealers if not the heck with these also.

Ahhhhh.....but keep in mind that these "Uncirculated Sets" contain the special "Satin Finish" coins, which are DIFFERENT than the regular business strikes.

I'm not sure I understand why people have an issue putting satin finish coins in an album. Don't many people populate their albums from mint sets?

There is no "problem" with putting "Satin Finish" in the albums at all.....it's just the "issue" of having a Satin Finish in the hole istead of a regular business strike coin. In actuality..one should have "both" versions in their albums. And that's really the subject. Putting a SF coin into a reg. biz. strike hole.
Many folks will put their Satins in a biz. strike hole and not care one way or the other....and that's fine, but this is the "issue".....it being technically and numismatically a "different coin".

For the America the Beautiful set, I'm thinking of just doing the proofs. I like the frosty look of the proof State Quarters. But as was said earlier, it will depend on the look of the coins.

I never really collected the State Quarters, I have 2 silver proof sets of every year, until recently I began watching/ purchasing the pf70 silvers. In a NGC holders the coins are much easier to appreciate than in the mint sets. I have quite a few pf70 states in silver..They seem to be going up in price rather quickly. The silvers are much more pleasing to the eye than satin or clad... I think the mint is diluting the brand by keeping going with national parks.

That is correct. Satin Finish mint set coins are not the same as regular business strike coins. They are almost as different from the business strikes as the proofs are.

Mint set coins used to be pulled from the same production as the business strikes, and for that reason they were considered the same thing.

However, the satin finish coins use different planchets and are produced on difference presses. They should not be considered the same as business strikes.

No they WILL be getting rolls of them, but there is no way to know WHEN they will get them or WHICH ones any particular bank will get. With the State Quarters the bank could specifically request boxes of the latest one when they came out. With the parks quarter they can't make specific requests and they will get whatever the Fed has on hand. So whether a bank happens to get a box of new parks quarters will just be a matter of luck.
