Collecting Those W MM ATB Quarters

I only recently found out about the "S" mint pieces only available in rolls. Then the "W" mint pieces in pocket change. I live to close to the mint in Denver, and I pay for everything with a debit card, so those "W" mint pieces will not likely end up in my change.

I'm well aware of them and constantly looking at my change, but to say I'm in active pursuit of these things would be an exaggeration. This isn't to say I won't consider getting a few bank rolls, maybe, but to me unearthing them in change is the most genuine way to collect them and definitely the preferred approach the Mint wants people to take. I've obtained a single Lowell quarter so far and am very pleased with it, and equally intrigued by the prospect of finding more in circulation. Again, though, they aren't my top collecting priority, so you'll never find me buying any from ebay. (In my honest opinion doing that and hoarding them in bulk completely ruins the fun of it to me, I wish people would take it a little less seriously sometimes)
