Hinkle Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Did not know they made these. Pretty cool to find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKK Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I remember them coming out when I was a kid, along with ones of Lincoln smoking a cigar and such. These used to accompany Lincoln/Kennedy coincidence novelties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Bob Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 There were ads for them in the back of comic books, as I recall. They also made them with American flags, outlines of the individual states, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hinkle Posted June 22, 2019 Author Share Posted June 22, 2019 So there's a few other different types. I'll keep my eyes open for others. Thanks, something else to put in my collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohawk Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Hey Hinkle! Long time, no see. Good to see you back. I've found some of those as well....I just found a 1980 cent with Florida carved into it a couple of weeks ago. They do turn up in circulation from time to time and it would be a fun pursuit to see how many different types you could snag from circulation.

Hahahaha, yeah I've been working camping and going to graduations and reunions. Its pretty busy through here in the summertime trying to get everything in before next winter. I was helping my girlfriend's mom move and in return she gave me a bag of coins for helping. And that's what I found so far. Plus been saving all other change I get when going shopping, so I'll have plenty to search through this coming winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah....it's a busy time of year for sure, with all that going on! I can relate to busy.....I'm working on my EdD dissertation currently. Lots of stop-go, stop-go with that. I like your change plan for winter, I must say.....that'll keep you busy! Are you checking your quarters for the W mint marks or waiting for winter for that as well?

No luck.☹ but looking in change for them little sucker's too.😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohawk Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I haven't bought any rolls myself. It likely wouldn't do me any good. My little corner of NY State seems to have had an absolute glut of 2018-P Pictured Rocks quarters shipped to us recently. I've seen 2019-P coins for cents, nickels and dimes but no quarters yet. I was hoping I'd find one early so I could flip it for something for my Roman collection, but no luck. But, if anyone wanted 2018-P Pictured Rocks quarters, I can get those!
