Ultimately, the First Strike version is valued less than the Regular Strike. Therefore, we recommend focusing your attention on finding specimens with errors, such as Double Die or Off-Center Strike.
“Modern coins are common with off-center strikes. The rarities in these more modern series of off-centers are certain dates and mint mark”.Such quarters have not yet been registered with PCGS. However, if you find one, you will obtain a significant 2018 P Cumberland Island quarter value. Or if you are interested in higher value, you can buy the 2018 Block Island Quarter.
