Went by my bank today and they had rolls of quartes from Minnesota, Maine, Wisconsin, Florida, Alabama and Iowa. I figured I couldn't lose, so I bought em. All P mint except for the Iowa. Don't know where they got D mint Iowas. Didn't realize they were Ds until I got home.

 

I wierd thing I notice today though. We almost always get P mint coins here in Ohio. But I don't have any P mint Ohio quarters from circulation. Only D mints. Go figure.

I've noticed that most of my Ohio quarters were D mint too. It took me a while to come across a P mint one.

Easy to figure. Remember the safety issues at the Phila Mint when OH-Ps were to be struck? OSHA had the mint shut down for six weeks to allow for the safety violations to be corrected. OH-Ps were destined, for quite a while, to be the "key state" for the series. But that fell apart, just like the NJ-Ds were originally supposed to be the key. As of the release of MN quarters, IA-Ps are the lowest mintage. However, because the Elvis estate folks colorize TN quarters, TNs seem to be hot. And, of course, if you want to go the error route and believe urban legend stuff, any quarter can be considered *rare.* If anyone's interested, here's the latest:
