Fresh from the mint, dripping luster, simply beautiful in every respect!

Stacking them like that you just dropped them from MS-66 to MS-65!

Spray them with clear acrylic lacquer.
The lacquer will easily come off with an acetone soaking.
Until do DO end up soaking them in acetone, they will retain theit FULL mint lustre!
Store them in a screw top coin tube.

And don't forget to drop each one on a hard surface to listen to the ring.

Actually, I don't care about the condition--I'm planning on spending them! (I'm sure the 2014 Kennedy is never going to show up on any rare coin list.)

That's also another pleasure of collecting coins--handing this stunningly beautiful, dazzling coin to a store clerk and seeing their eyes light up. It may just be the one nice thing that happens to them that day--and I'll bet they trade it for a couple of their own quarters to take home so they can also enjoy the show.

I'll see what I can do! I am also planning on spreading them on the floor and then rolling around in them!

After I cherry-pick through my clad NIFC bags ("S" Quarters, golden Dollars, etc.) I spend the culls. Quality control varies on the clad NIFC coins, for instance I spent only one Denver 2013 Native Dollar, and nine Phillys. The spent Phillys had ugly planchet rinse stains and were not really of "collectible" grade appearance, so off they went to the car wash and parking meters...
