Mint out of the 1,000-quarter Guam bags?
Guam quarter sales are rolling right along, but the focus has changed from the big bags to the smaller bags and the two-roll set.
Guam quarter sales are rolling right along, but the focus has changed from the big bags to the smaller bags and the two-roll set. This might be due to the fact that the Mint has run out of the 1,000-coin bags. I have not been officially informed of that, but since the numbers did not rise in a manner similar to the other sales options, I think it is a good guess. The number of two-roll sets jumped by almost 10,000 and the 100-coin bags rose by roughly 2,700 apiece.
