I've been plucking these out of circulation here and there, and was very pleased in particular to find an MS-state example. My goal is to make one roll of these and hold on to them. Is there any numismatic anticipation on these anytime in the near future, or should I just go into this with the expectation that fun is going to be my only reward?

no numismatic whatsoever............my uncle had 250 FV of these that he plucked from circulation! I cashed them in for him and got him some 90% silver. Much better move I think.

I do pull these as well but I just do it because I like the drummer.

I have a pile of these too, but frankly I don't see too many anymore. I don't think they have any value except in MS grades.  on the story |

I pull them when I come across any and save them because I was born in 1976.

I keep them when I come across them just because I like the reverse as well, but just like the others said, no numismatic value unless you have the silver S- minted issues...

AND it's a sad one when it comes to coins. Way, way back myself and a friend competed in trying to see who could accumulate the most of those Bicentennial Quarters. After about 30 years he had thousands of them. He beat me out but I too had a real lot of them. We both took some to a coin show to try to sell them. All dealers said NO. One said $0.24/each sort of like saying NO I guess. All ended up in the bank for face value. Sure would have preferred to save something worth saving back then. Every time I see one in change, I get rid of it as fast as possible. If you collect those THINGS, you probably will get many of mine. GOOD LUCK WITH THOSE. Edited by just carl

Dealers will offer you .23 to .24 Cents apiece for them if in BU condition......  The regular ol' circulated ones ......well......they're just spendin' money.....and that's it ! Edited by eaglefoot

I keep a roll of them since it's what got me started collecting in the first place.

I keep because they're different and why not, I doubt anyone else will appreciate them.

I like them so I keep them, but as others have said...don't expect any real appreciation.

I was putting a role together but abandoned since it seems like there isn't value, and I have other things to hoard!

Kind of funny that they have no extra value but so many people hoard these coins.
