> It's absurd that they are trading at such a premium.

I can agree, it is absurd, but there are only 4460 mini-bags and folks want them.
To see a picture of a mint sewn bag:

> Delaware quarters are not scarce, not at all.

Not correct. They only made 774 million, which turned out be be scarce given the fact folks hoarded them.

Regular mint bags ($1000 face uncirculated) are being bought for $4500 by coin dealers.

Dealers are also paying $20 per roll for circulated Delaware quarters.

Interesting, Bob. Didn't realize coin collecting was so popular that a the mint condition of a 774 million issue quarter could become momentarily scarce!

Do you know of any info offhand about Ag hedges closing?
