Just purchased and received some colorized quarters, pretty cool. Does anyone else have any of these coins and feel the same way as me. I am now on the hunt for more if anyone has doubles for sale.

I was just at the Ottawa mint on the weekend and noticed that there were lots of colored coins for sale
