Delaware quarters slow to roll in Bald eagles tribute coins
Commemorative Delaware state quarters minted two weeks ago replace the eagles with Caesar Rodney on horseback, depicting his 1776 ride to Independence Hall. The coins are showing up in Frederick area banks but remain rare. shipments come from the Federal Reserve Bank in Richmond with Philadelphia Fed supplying Delaware. Four more state designs, including Pennsylvania and Georgia, follow later this year, as Maryland prepares for its turn next year. Local bank staff note the new pieces feel like silver dollars and expect limited distribution for months.
