The Mt. Rushmore is the first ATB Quarter design to exceed the lowest-mintage State Quarter design (Oklahoma).

crazyforATB: Why just those 3, what about Hawaii?

because those were the 3 lowest minted ones, every one since then has 80-450 million more floating around.

I backed up the truck on those three. I have a ton of Hawaii Volcanos too, just because I like them.

Even as high as the Rushmore mintage is, the fact that the average Joe can't go to his local bank and load up on BU Rushmore rolls massively reduces the percentages of BU coins collected hoarded as compared to State Quarters.

I totally agree with DNA assessment; however, the question is: Does it make economical sense to pay for these rolls at more than face value (ie: buy the rolls from USMint and sit on it for a few years)? I'm sure it will be better than leave the cash in a saving account though.....

In a rather uninspired article in Numismatic News, David Harper basically says the same thing we have been saying. The recent economic downturn has forced many people to "cash in" their State Quarter hoards and that lowered demand for new ATB's.

He seems to think that 2010, will always be the key dates in the series.

I'm actually rather excited to see some higher mintages on these, perhaps more will make it into my change.
