Sales Start for Puerto Rico Quarters Bags / Two-Roll Sets

I received this notification concerning sales of the Puerto Rico State Quarter this morning. I have noticed that many of the US Mint's products have been selling out quickly recently, so if you are accumulating these it would be a good idea for you to act early!

The reverse design features a view of the sea from a sentry box in Old San Juan. Pictured at right is the hibiscus, the official flower of Puerto Rico. The reverse was designed and sculpted by Joseph Menna.
The inscriptions read “Puerto Rico,” “Isla del Encanto” (which translates to English as "Island of Enchantment"), “E Pluribus Unum,” and the date.
Mintage:53,000,000-Philadelphia, 86,000,000-Denver.

I'm working on some updates for Squidoo coin lenses.
