Coins minted in Philadelphia and Denver are standard issues for circulation. Their value remains low even in relatively high grades.
Except for the 2018 Voyageurs quarter P variety in MS-68 condition, which is valued at $125. Thus, it is possible to find a valuable variety, but it is quite difficult. And overall, the P-mint issue has a higher price than the 2018 Voyageurs quarter D.
The most valuable is the 2018 Minnesota Voyageurs quarter minted in silver at the San Francisco mint.
It was issued in two varieties: 2018-S Silver, DCAM (Proof) and 2018-S Silver Rev PR 50th Anniversary Set. These varieties are much rarer, and consequently, they are more expensive.
If you are looking for truly rare and special specimens, then we also recommend paying attention to the 2018 Block Island Quarter. This is an equally rare and interesting variety.
2018 Voyageurs Quarter Errors & Varieties
Grade | 2018-P First Strike | 2018-D First Strike | 2018-S First Strike |
65 | - | - | $15 |
66 | $12 - $16 | $12 | - |
67 | $25 | - | - |
First Strike is not an indicator of strike quality, but rather confirmation of early submission of the coin for certification. It is a collector's mark that increases the appeal of modern specimens on the market, especially in perfect condition.
However, it is not an indicator of specific features of a specimen, for example, such as the proof version of the 2018 Cumberland Island Quarter.
But if you find a specimen with a rare 2018 Voyageurs quarter error such as a double die, you could obtain significant value.
Mint Marks & Collector Interest
2018-P Regular Strike | 237,400,000 |
2018-D Regular Strike | 197,800,000 |
2018-S Regular Strike | 831,560 |
2018-S Silver, DCAM (Proof) | 350,820 |
2018-S Silver Rev PR 50th Anniversary Set (Proof) | 199,116 |
So, we can conclude that, thanks to their small mintage, specimens from San Francisco indeed hold greater value.
However, even with Philadelphia's largest mintage, their coins in perfect quality are also rare, as they are difficult to find.
As a result, the average variety from Denver remains less appealing to collectors.
Conclusion
Well. This issue is indeed full of rarities and interest for collectors. We strongly recommend considering its purchase. And to successfully track your collection, 2018 Voyageurs quarter value, and quickly identify new specimens, use the Coin ID Scanner app.
