Nice finds! I will do a couple quarter rolls now and then just to get the new coins for my books and really love finding silver too! Got 2 rolls recently and found a W 75th anniversary coin, lucky day.

16,000 coins - and I'm wondering whether our results are typical. Any thoughts? We found:
1 - 1964d 2 - 2019w San Antonio Missions 2 - 2019w War in the Pacific 2 - 2019w American Memorial Park 3 - impaired proofs 2 - plated coins
Sadly, the silver results are pretty typical, aristarchus123... 6 Ws in 16K coins is about average for me too, actually... Your impaired proof average is a bit better than I normally do... Personally, I'm now up to 40 W quarters total with these three I found on 9/8/2023 amongst 3,200 quarters I searched that day.  That was a very good day... Overall, quarters are extremely sporadic for me. I searched 2,800 last Saturday and another 1,000 during this week and came up completely empty... I bought another 2,200 yesterday and so far have found nothing in 1,400 of them... maybe the last 800 will have something. BTW, I'm still missing that Washington "Bat" 2020-W for my complete set all 10 of them from the two years found from circulation...

How funny, that is one of the three W's I have found in the wild. Has anyone found any of the 1976 silver Bicentennial quarters, either the uncirculated or proof strikes?

Can't get mad at that! Not every day you get $5 for free technically.

CalzoneManiac to your question about finding 1976 silver Bicentennial quarters, either the uncirculated or proof strikes? Yes, I have found several of both while CRH. They are out there. Keep Searching.
"LOVE THE HUNT!"

Not been searching quite as much lately thanks to general life busyness and changes... did find my 41st W quarter on October 13th - a 2019 W - San Antonio coin... still looking for that elusive 2020 W "bat" quarter - will be making some road trips to Vegas over the next several months, so, perhaps, that's where I will finally get that elusive coin - here in SoCal, they're non-existent.
