How Are "You" Going To Collect The Parks Quarters ?

Yea I agree with you Eaglefoot, If you are lucky enough to find one in circulation there is a 99.5% chance it will not be BU due to handling and circulation nics and bangs.

It would be painful to order the 2 roll set 5x a year for the next 11 years

.......

Of course I'd be a willing partner in something like that, and have certainly thought about it. But, there are some issues with such a long term commitment like that.
The main concern, if there ends up being a lot of them with low mintages (extrememly low), is just being able to find one ! Like what if one ends up being like last years Dimes or Nickels ? And so your "trading partner" has his P or D, but you can't find one to send out ?
The other problem is.....CONDITION.....you get sent a nice BU example to fulfill the bargain.....but the only ones you can find on your end are in really crappy condition !
And NOBODY on either side of this equation can just trot down to the bank and get rolls of them when they come out like the State Qtrs.....so......this will be A LOT OF ROLL HUNTING ! .....AND ROLL HUNTING FOR 11 YEARS ! .....
Then there is the constant postage and envelopes for 11 years....5 times a year !

So....yeah.....I just have some "concerns".....about doing that. I think I'd be willing to try it though.....

I just doubt that I'm going to pay for any Two Roll Sets five times a year for 11 years.....and so if that's the case....it will be "Roll Hunting Mania" for a long long long time for me!
It sometimes takes MONTHS or even a YEAR or so, before I even get the DENVER mint, which is just west of me about 550 miles ! Let alone seeing a P mint (which is what I'd need to trade for) .....those generally take A LOT LONGER ! .....and then the condition is C.R.A.P.P.Y. by the time I see my P mints around here ! ....
Some "new issues" just don't immediately show up here for quite some time.....sometimes they do.......sometimes they don't.

Well I attended the Hot Springs Opening only because it just turned out I would be going by there April 20th so why not stop. Next year when Gettysburg comes out I hope it is when I am here as I live 30 minutes from there so will attend that also. I may attend some other close ones if the timing is right.

I asked my bank yesterday if they were getting the new rolls they said they should however I have my doubts as the stopped getting the State Quarters at the beginning of 2009. But I hope they do is so I ill get one roll to trade P for D.

I may get the 5oz anyone know when that will come out?

I read that bullion dealers will sell these anyone know if this is right like APMEX?

I will get the Proof yearly set for the silver and other proofs of these as getting all those proof sets is getting to expensive so will just get the yearly Proof and Silver Proof they will have them all in.

Eagle Foot what about if we can get about 55 trusted guys from this forum and we all draw a park 2 roll p&d set to buy from the mint and those 5 guys ship at the end of each year to save on s&h will call it the america the beautiful team @ of cours ccf and we will all be happy with the coins with fuller strikes from mint rolls + at the end of the eleven years we will all be verry happy with are set purchase price from my short experience here this looks like a big enough forum to take on this undertaking this idea might need some impovements please advise on your opinion its steel early enough to get started with it ! anyone want to join us ?

I have no idea how I am going to get these coins. I am from Canada and will be returning there next year which means I won't be able to get them in my change.

I have had a trading post up for some time now with the Territory quarters here on CCF. Not too many people seem to really take advantage of it. I really don't think a forty person group would work very well. That being said, I have an idea. Since I am already committing to a two roll set from now to the end of the program (just got my hot springs) I suggest this:

A subscription program. Cost for one year of P&D Quarters from a two roll set plus shipping is about $12.50. If I got about 15 people who were willing to pay, up front $15.00, I would send out a problem free P & D set, in flips, every issue throughout the year. This is not as competitive as ebay at $2.00 a set but I would presumably be offering better quality coins or fear serious reprisals from the forum. Of course cancel at any time, blah, blah, blah...If this seems like an idea, I am offering the service, please let me know ASAP and I'll work up the contracts and mail them out to everyone.

I think all just call around then to some local dealers in the area as I'm in a big city and see if I can get them @ 2 times face value witch would total $55.00 I know when I tryed to complete 2 p&d sets of the State Quarters,i found a few local dealers that purchased p&d bags and sold individual ones @ $0.50 each but the bags were in larger quantites now the mint bags are only $25.00=100 coins low mintages I will check around for now and see if I can come up with some other ideas thanks for shareing guys !
