Still no silver. :-p get that outta the way right now. Figured that's why most clicked on this. Guess I'll be picking up the slack for Hughmaster ;-).
Will say, was kinda annoyed, when I exchanged my last bag after taking out 2 quarters and adding one, I was somehow 3.95 short... I pointed out the fact that there were only quarters, the teller didn't catch on... Gotta figure out a nice way to tell them its off, though guess that just makes up for finding the quarters in my cents before. Anyway, got another bag, best one yet I'd say. 2 proofs:
S20180809_0001.jpg S20180809_0002.jpg
S20180809_0003.jpg S20180809_0004.jpg

These are definitely not nearly as lustrous as the other 2 proofs I've found though, but take 'em anyway. I'm up to 4 in 12,000 quarters sorted.
Also found these two:
S20180809_0007.jpg S20180809_0008.jpg
S20180809_0005.jpg S20180809_0006.jpg
So 4 foreign in 12,000 as well (not counting canada). Happy hunting everyone!

Those aren't proofs. For the ATB series, there are both proof and business strike quarters minted in San Fran. The San Fran Business Strike quarters are only issued to collectors and have some tiny mintages compared to traditional Philly/Denver Business Strike mintages.

Thanks for the clarification! Still happy to have found them!

Absolutely, they are a nice find. I'm actually amazed that they look that bad. I've been buying the S-Mint rolls since they started, and the quality has been outstanding. They look nothing like the Philly/Denver issues. They are almost proof-like with no frosted devices. My goal with the ATB series is to build a collection of just the S-Mints - Business strike, Clad Proof, Silver Proof.
