Thank you Jack and Mike. It strikes me as odd that the Mint is making circulation quality “S” coins and not including them in mintage totals. They are making Kennedy halves, presidential dollars, Native American dollars; all numismatic products, circulation quality not intended for circulation; and included in Mint totals. But not the “S” ATB quarters. If one collects ATB “circulation” quarters then are there only two options “P” and “D” or does one need to collect “S” quarters? If the average collector doesn’t know they even exist, then obviously they will not be collected.

I can have them tabulated from U.S. Mint sales data. As a numismatic product, the Mint is unlikely to provide further figures beyond those.

Yes Mike. Is there some place where the mintages can be found?

Kahoola, you mean the circulating-quality SF Mint quarters offered since 2012 in rolls and bags?

Mike, is it possible to track down the number of San Francisco struck ATB uncirculated quarters produced? It seems as if the Mint sells them and they disappear from the earth. There is no record of number produced or that they ever existed for that matter.
