    Anyone see any United States Territories quarters yet ?

    I don't collect state quarters but I do notice and admire them as they come out.

    In 2009 the US mint was suppose to issue District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Northern Mariana Islands.

    So far I haven't seen any of them in common change.

    Anyone ever see any of them in the wild yet ?

        I have found one each of DC, PR and Samoa. Would love to see the others. I've also been trying to collect the new dollar coin with the different presidents.
        It's all good!

          I have only seen the D.C. quarter in circulation of the territories.

          I bought rolls from the mint (they were the lowest produced quarters from the entire series).

          They also are producing yet another set of quarters this year which I think is called "America the Beautiful" with 4 or 5 quarters of famous national parks. The penny also will have some additional designs this year. Always something for the mint to print a $.50 roll of pennies and sell it for $8.95 (no kidding). I have never seen the Lincoln pennies from 2009 in circulation.

            I have some Lincoln pennies. I haven't seen any of the territories quarters, though.

              I believe there were some pennies available for circulation but not a lot.

              The 2010 America the Beautiful Quarters first release is in April and features Hot Springs National Park

              Looks like they have another series set for 2011.

                No, but I did grab a centennial penny and kept it. I've only seen one in circulation so far and they came out in 09.

                  I have a few of the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa and Guam quarters but I have none of the U.S. Virgin Islands or the Northern Mariana Islands.
