Picked up my box of quarters this morning from the bank, cracked the glue, and it's all 2019 American Memorial Park Loomis Rolls on both ends all P's except one roll has an eagle reverse showing out of the 50 rolls on one end, so not sure what that's all about, it's curious.
Now I have to sit through 10 hours of work before I can hunt it.
I will take pictures and post results here afterwards if anything of interest, I hope I don't get skunked. It looks promising though...

Looks like it might be bad, but I hope not. Good luck!   |

Closest I've been so far to finding the elusive W so I'll take it and the bank was great and said they'll order me more as long as I don't dump them on them all at once.
Ill just spread the dumps out to other branches $100 or so at a timeand get rid of the culls for a new box until I find them.

Ok! It's not a bust!  1st roll nothing, 2nd roll 2 W American Memorial Park. Sooooo happy! Continuing the hunt will figure out the image optimizer and post pictures further along in the hunt.  |

Update. 35 rolls searched of 50. Found 10 2019W American Memorial Parks so far and 1 Bahamas 25 cent coin from those rolls. Maybe 25% of the rolls searched or less were solid 2019 AMP quarters, the rest of the rolls had 1-4 maximum older circulated coins or that 2007 Bahamas coin. Sorry for the poor pictures but this is my 2nd time posting pics to the forum and only my galaxy S5 camera on my phone and it's 2am here and I'm going to bed to get up for work and continue the hunt tomorrow night. Hopefully I can pull 3 or more out of the last 15 rolls. Maybe I will try to take better pictures tomorrow if I can figure out the lighting and focus.   |

I just searched $480 worth of quarters. No Silvers, no W's. Around 10-20 2009-2012. One thing I did notice is every once in a while I'd come across a really nice BU of a State Quarter, looks like it had never seen circulation. I found at least 5 of those. For example, one was 1999 Connecticut and another 2000 South Carolina. Is that unusual? |

It's not normal, but it's not completely unusual either. People saved the State Quarters, so if someone got fresh ones and tucked them away in a jar or something 20 years ago and forgot about them, then just found them and then decided to just turn them into a bank instead of collecting. Or just like a week ago it was the "great American coin hunt" and con week" dealers dropped about a million collector coins into circuLatin so some dealer may have been sitting on BU rolls and decided to put them out there in ciexultation again for the great american coin hunt along with other things. It's not every day you come across a 20 year old bU coin, but it's not extremely rare either. I used to find those colorized coins once in a while when they were popular for instance. I don't think most coin dealers dropped all 1932 D and S quarters into circulation for the million coins, probably a lot were BU coins of low value or wheat cents or common date Buffalo nickels and such, and a couple rarities. Likely why you are coming across such older BU coins. |

ACwhammy I too have been finding really nice other date quarters.
I have been updating my books with nicer versions.
A never ending beauty contest.
