Hi,

Got this is a roll that had a nickel in it in place of a quarter. Hate that when that happens, but looks like I got compensated in a way. :-)

Probably-A-Once-In-A-Lifetime-Find-For-Me-In-A-Roll!

So exciting-I read about it, but never thought I would encounter one!

Great find in the wild!

The U.S. Mint should do this type of "treasure hunt" more often, to even the playing field for collectors.

That is a very interesting question, frog and an interesting response, Pacificoin. I say this, because it does mean different things to different people. I have no real good answer for this particular find but think it's cool to find in the wild. I know that's not your thing anymore, frog and Pacificoin, that's a pretty good response, even without me knowing much about this find. Some things are just worth more to some, than others, for different reasons. I have found only one 2001 P Lincoln Cent DDO-001 and have been told it is "scarce", most do not even know about this particular variety but yet it's "scarce" and probably not actually worth that much. This, I guess would be my point about the question to begin with....

Nice find - I say XF/AU grade range. W mint and privy mark make it special for sure.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

Here's the thing: most modern U.S. coins collected skew toward MS. There is no shortage of "perfect" coins. That is not true of the 2019-2020 "W" quarters. It harkens back to a time when most specimens were plucked from circulation—the way many of us started out in this hobby, I dare say. So, for many, that's the appeal of hunting for those 20 million "W" quarters, spread across ten designs. That hunt is an equalizer. Sure, some dedicated hunters have gone through box after box of quarters, but those big dealers who typically snap up a large percentage of Mint releases are reduced to the the level of a common collector, hunting through rolls and pocket change. By modern standards, the "W" quarters are scarce, because you just can't go out and buy MS examples directly from the Mint.
