Went through another 500$ Loomis box last night. Mostly circ coins with a few scattered Unc quality coins blended in.
Found 4 76 Bicentennials and 1 2020-W Marsh Billings Rockefeller. The W coin is 64 quality to these old eyes.
Another box on the manifest for a Monday arrival! Woohoo!

Just searched 4 rolls and found a 2017 S Bombay Hook quarter. It's a little rough, but still a cool find. I've never found a NIFC S quarter before.

Second non-half dollar box I've ever bought and I'm 2/2 for getting all the same coin. First 2009 Presidency Pennies, now 2020 Salt river bay P quarters. Is it possible I will find a W in these rolls? I've opened 5 and I haven't seen one yet. Only interesting coin besides some super mint ones is the double rimed one pictured below, what would that be considered?

DelawareMatt- Forget the double rims. It's very possible, keep opening. Any W's in those Salt River Bay's yet?

Quote: Is it possible I will find a W in these rolls? Yes, it is possible. One thing to be aware of is if you find an occasional circulated, or different dated quarter, then your box has most likely already been searched and any W's have been removed. Only one way to find out though and that requires you to start going thru them! Most W's I've ever found in a 500$ box of new quarters has been 17 coins! Good luck and please keep us posted!
