Hello John77 I agree, the incentive now is the W Quarters, People really want them and don't have the time or willingness to search for them. I am averaging 1-2 a box, sometimes more. Now the Silver is the bonus when searching for W's. I cracked 6 boxes this week 3 skunks and pulled 5 W's one box had three. I pulled 1-19 Lowell W, 2-20W Salt River Bay, 1-20W National Park, and 1-20W Marsh Billings. As long as I keep finding W's I will keep searching. Hoping to pull several hundred from circulation. There out there start buying boxes. If I can find them in my little town that never got UNC rolls when they were minted I can only imagine what bigger cities are getting. Good Luck everyone!!

Very nice! They seem to be in better condition than most of the ones we find.

A couple days ago, I got a W quarter at Pick N' Save; it was a 2019 Lowell. I gave them a dollar for four quarters, and it was in with the four quarters. I got very lucky.

Good Day Everyone, Had a good week searching Quarters this week, Would have been better if I found silver along with W's. I cracked 4 boxes this week plus $200 in additional bank Rolls and $100 in Customer Wrapped Rolls. Didn't find anything in the loose rolls. All four boxes contained W's One box had a 2020 W Ender plus another one in the box. So out of 4 boxes I pulled 5 W's. 3-19W Mission, 1-20W Salt River Bay and the 2020 on the End of the Roll. I will be placing in on my Etsy Store. PM me if you are interested in the Roll. Hope everyone has a good weekend. Keep Up the Hunt!

I can only $50 in quarter rolls. Can't get boxes because of a coin shortage again.

Hey Mike, its interesting here too, the local banks can't get me the quarters, but Wells Fargo is not affected by the coin shortage or they allow National Banks more money each week. I am happy about that, I would like to be searching 8-12 boxes a week. I have a friend I introduced to coin roll hunting quarters. He has searched about $1500 in quarters and he pulled a 90 degree rotated die on a Wisconsin quarter and found a Vermont Quarter with the Clad missing on the reverse. Talk about beginners luck. Good Luck everyone. Keep up the Hunt.

I can get all the quarters I need but I don't get more than 1 or 2 boxes at a time.

Nice finds Arby!
Minniemarine, if your bank will only give you $50 quarters, $25 dimes, $10 Nicole's, and $12 in penny rolls, I'd take them. Searching something is still a chance, where not searching isn't. I'm limited to 1 of each denomination where I am, 2 rolls maximum and that's rolls below quarter rolls, and I got to finesse to get the extra rolls. $97 is an odd number, maybe they can change the cents to $5 and add another roll of quarters and make it a round $100! As an aside, the mint is striking and distributing half dollars this year, I think to cover for this shortage some, wouldn't hurt to ask your banks if they have some halves, if that will get you a few rolls more to search. I'm seeing some businesses are supplementing with half dollars in the drawers to save on how many quarters they give out. If quarters are tough, what about halves so it saves on quarters given out?
Another option is any bank, Credit union or store with a coin machine, that isn't a coinstar but their own to attend to, IF you have the cash, it wouldn't hurt to ask the manager if you could buy a bag of the turn ins from the machine, it's not great for BU, but it's a large quantity to search though. I've done it with cents and found some WAMs, I can afford $50 or so for a bag of cents, I can't afford $1500 for a bag of quarters. LOL $500 is my limit in a shot.
