Thanks.....A lot of the good clad spots are drying up around here too.
Thanks.....sooner or later you'll end the slump. Good luck.Score! I'm in a silver and gold slump
Cut n paste from an article.....
The announcement of the W mint mark quarters ties in with the American Numismatic Association’s National Coin Week from April 21-27, 2019. Also during the month of April, independent coin dealers will place approximately one million of their own collectible coins into circulation across the United States as part of the Great American Coin Hunt.
......I’ve gotten 2 Mercs and a Rosie in the past year or so and suspect they’re a part of this.

Nice finds. Clad is always good when you find it in that quantity

Cool! There's still some goodies finding their way into circ. The other day while being rung up at Dollar General, I was eyeballing the literacy coin donation container on the counter because it had an old nickel on the very top and I could clearly see the "P" above Monticello. It must be a sickness!

They "might be" but there's no way to prove it. I've gotten silver coins in circulation many times BEFORE 2019.
Thanks Mike.....clad is spendable so it has its good points. I take all I can get.Nice finds. Clad is always good when you find it in that quantity

Ooh! This is what us coin roll hunters call a "wild" find, since you found it in the "wild", not while roll hunting. Anyway, how was that donut? (JK, congrats!)

Man I used to work at taco bell. Literally tons of change went through my hands. I never saw a single silver coin.

I've got 5-6 silver coins that I got in circulation from coffee shops. Got a few from the local liquor store too.

Silver is still silver, nice score on a first year Rosie D4C. Anyday I hit over $5 bucks in clad is a real good day. Well done and good luck on the next one. Mark
