Msaintiger Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 08/23/2022 9:31 pm I've been reading about the rarity of 1982 and 1983 quarters and the limited high grade examples. I have a couple 1982 and 1983 quarters and here is one of them. I thought maybe misaligned or mint error. Any advice or information is greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

In 82-83 the observe design was change which give some transitional varieties but are not rare. on both years was more then 1.8 bill coins. Divide by 4 and if you consider rarity? is OK for me.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95200 Posts	Posted 08/23/2022 10:28 pm It is the 1982/3 Mint sets that are rare - seeing how the mint did not issue any. However, in the gift shop of each mint you could buy a set in person only. So there are not many to be had now. (I have one each from both Philly and Denver mints). This quarter is just a common quarter that was issued to general circulation. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

(Probably not well known, if they are valuable to most collectors in the BU original rolls) As mentioned above about the lack of mint sets for those years. Report this Post to the Staff
