Last weekend I bought some quarter and dimes in my local bank for coin roll hunting fishing. My "net" brought two 80%s, '67 mackerel and 2004 Santa Claus from [URL="http://www.colonialacres.com/cgi-bin/dispitem.cgi?item=2004_holidaygift]2004 Holiday gift set[/url]. Looks good as on me. :-)

BTW, any thoughts how the Santa coin was got into circulation? somebody deposited their gift set? Or it came from the MINT in ordinal coin rolls by mistake?

Nice find Yuri
I'm quite sure that Santa quarter was found in the first of the holiday coin sets.
Colonial acres is currently selling that coin for $33.00.

I think that one 2004 is pretty low mintage,I have the RCM guide handy I think mintage of 62000 great find in change, you would think someone would snag it.Someone may have been hard up and rolled the loose change and anything to make 10 dollars.
When I dealt with a lot of change I picked up 10 or 12 proof coins over the years so many I used to wonder like Yuriy if the mint put the unsold in ciculation but that is unlikely it's a different facility.
