Received mine today. It's nice but I think Shenandoah is my favorite for this year. (It's close between that one & Smoky Mountains)

I got mine yesterday. I have to say this isn't my favorite this year - I thought the Arch was done well, but the back ground seems less detailed and lacks distinction. I might have preferred some of the other image options they had available - to the single Arch. I'll have to buy the bullion on this one to see if I like the way it looks there better.

Mine arrived in yesterday's mail. It's nice, but as others have said, not my favorite of the year. looking forward to the Everglades issue.

It would have looked great with a proof background and a frosted arch...instead it just looks flat

I always think the silver proof quarters look better than the vapor blasted pucks. They should mint a special puck like the standard proof and see which sells more, the vapor blast or the standard proof.

How about a 4 coin special set?..limited to 10k minted....Regular Bullion & a Special Strike & a Traditional Proof & a REVERSE PROOF....?

I don't know how many people could afford 4 pucks each time. I think even having two at a time is pushing it for a lot of people. But just once it would be nice to put a regular proof up against the vapor blast to see which ones sell better and then go from there.

I know a large cost plus if the mint did something like that the cost may be higher as they did with the eagles. Four one time is not that bad but with 5 every year a high cost. The 139 and change really makes these a nice deal though. Hopefully the price sticks through the year. The Everglades park looks nice! plus I've been there. I especially like to pick up the coins from parks I've been too. I don't have the first 4 from 2010 due to that high 279 price. Hopefully one day I can pick them up.

I just checked the numbers sold as of June 29 and Arches is 23, 302 and Shenandoah is 24,446. Arches seems to be doing well and just a thousand less than Shenandoah.

I have to admit that the Arches is my favorite 2014P puck so for this year.

I think the Shenandoah P- version looks pretty sweet!
