With collecting Cdn circulation coins for my grandkids, I am now looking for the following quarters: 2010 Men's Hockey Red 2010 Cindy Klassen Red 2012 War of 1812 Brock Plain 2015 Remembrance Red 2015 Cdn Flag 2015 Cdn Flag Red 2017 150 Coloured
Haven't seen many of these lately. Has anyone else. Did receive in our change one 2015 Remembrance Plain quarter yesterday which was the last one I needed so now I just need to find the rest. Still going through rolls of coins.

Hi, I'm looking for the 2015 coloured flag RED and 2015 coloured poppy RED.

Thanks.

If you go into a bank and buy 10 rolls of quarters I would think you would find some of these. Just waiting to find one in change could take a while.

About a year and a half ago, I turned over $700-800 worth of non-caribou quarters to the bank. I had pulled them from rolls over several years but fell on hard times and needed the cash. I had many rolls of each design. I'm kicking myself now

Punman,
Your plan may have worked 2 or more years ago. Not so much anymore. My bank would net 5-10 non-caribou designs from 10 rolls nowadays

Just for fun I went into my bank and got 10 rolls of quarters today. I thought I'd check for 2018s (none yet). I found 52 non caribous or an average of 5.2 non caribous per roll.

'91 circulation. One of these days? I don't know with ARP against us.  . I won't stop looking though. ( edit punman- that seems pretty good odds. Congrats.)

I will try to make it to the bank tomorrow just out of curiosity sake. It's been a few months since I've hunted rolls

The colored flags are a tough find, I maybe get one per box, same with the poppies, the canada 150 colors are also kinda scarce in circulaton, ive seen a few not in collectible condition,

For my grandkids collection, I am not searching for collectible quality but merely just trying to find one of each coin. And yes the coloured coins are certainly harder to find.

On the weekend got one 2015 Cda Flag quarter. Now I need the same amount of plan and red 2015 Cda Flag quarters. Hopefully there are still some out there.

Before I go the ebay route, I am still trying to find the coins in my change or through looking at rolls of coins from stores or the bank.

In the past I've had a bad habit of becoming impatient that I haven't found something in change, then go and buy it (eg. Men's hockey colour and flag colour). I then subsequently find nice ones in change. The only one I'm currently needing is the 2017 colour version. I have a feeling a lot of 2017 coins haven't been released yet as it seems that stores are still going through their 2016 rolls. I'll try to be patient on this one.
