So over the past 4 months I've been keeping my eye out for the W quarters. I read the articles. It looked like fun. Two friends had found at least 1 a piece and thats all I really wanted to find. Just one. I started getting a random roll or 2 every so often. Nothing to speak of for months. Then, this past Friday I get 5 rolls from the bank. All the enders are San Antonio Missions. I figure this was my best chance yet! First 2 rolls are duds, the last 3 rolls produce 2 W's a piece. I was excited being a complete newb to the game. So I went back to the bank and got 5 more rolls from the same teller. That produced 3 more making a total of 9 San Antonio W's out of 10 rolls. I don't know about the odds and everything but I felt like I got pretty lucky. Should I resume this charade monday or should I let sleeping dogs lie? 2 of them are in really nice condition so I'll have my first graded coins eventually! My plan is to trade the rest for the others I don't have. Thanks for reading. Have a nice day!

Go get as many as the bank will allow you.
 

Awesome score!
I agree with smokey... go back and see if you can get the rest of that box!
 

Regardless of how many you find, always keep UPGRADING with what you have, keeping the Best-of-the-Best and trade or sell off the rest.
 

I went back today and got 6 rolls. Only 1w. Maybe I just got lucky the other day. So 10 total. I may go for a whole box one of these days.

One W per six rolls is only a disappointment because your early success was so good. Even one per six rolls is far above average. Some people have searched many boxes and not found one.
 

Im still looking lol
 

I got three this week - after going through three boxes of quarters, $1500 worth. Plus one Kansas error. Six in a roll is wonderful.
