Mint Sealed Bags Of State Quarters

[engine823]

Hey Friends,
Was picking up coins today and found a bank that had LOTS of these sealed mint bags of state quarters. I don't collect them but thought maybe there could be some value in getting them at face value and then reselling them? Looked to ebay and they were selling them at a slight profit. Do you all think it may be worth grabbing those coins? Would there be a certain state and mint mark that may bring a larger profit?
Thanks

Most of them won't get much or any premium. The state quarters did a good job of getting people into the hobby but lots of them saved rolls of each coin. Many lost interest or brought them in to dealers because a roll set tied up a lot in face value. Most dealers would only pay about $12.50 a roll but have so many rolls they aren't buying even at face. There might be a few better dates, maybe the early ones or bags to look for the high/low leaves but in general most are face value.

You never know, on ebay someone might pay a premium for sealed bags. I think the mint did sell rolls with a mint wrapper and small bags of some, you'd need to look for info, those might have some premium but only to the right buyer.

Thank You for the insight. Found it weird they had so many and figured I would ask

I assume you are referring to the $25 small bags. It has been opined that Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and I believe New Jersey are expected to be of some premium value in the long run. I keep the ones I find worthy in pocket change. Delaware has a very valuable variety affecting the IGWT but presently I do not recall if its a clash or some other anomaly. It is naked eye obvious. The rest have some DDRs but nothing of real value. I don't collect quarters and don't claim to have much knowledge about them but I have bought some of those bags at face value. If you can get them at face and don't mind tying up the funds, I would not hesitate buying at least the four above mentioned.

Maybe the best variety in the series is the 2009-D DC with the doubling on the piano keys.
That one brings big money but few were found.

I have 3 $25 mint bags - Penn., Minn., and Wisc. 2004-D that I'm saving/forgotten about. The Minnesota's have tons of "extra tree" varieties but only a few carry a significant premium. Wisconsin has the extra leaf varieties that carry a nice premium. Pennsylvania Philly mints in PCGS 67+ - $250 and the 18 coins that graded MS-68 - $3000 per PCGS guide. Several of the States quarters value in the thousands in 68 or above but, man, it's a scary proposition shucking out $50/coin to find out! All of mine look spotless but I'm not good enough to confirm a 68. Wishful thinking I might gamble on when I get rich!
