Bank of Colegrovia Econometric Programs Bicentennial Quarter Longitudinal Sampling Program
The Bank of Colegrovia conducts periodic econometric field studies. The longest running study is the Bicentennial Quarter Longitudinal Sampling Program. Samples of US Quarter Dollar coins are collected in
Las Vegas Nevada. The number of Bicentennial Quarters in the sample are tallied.
The most recent sample statistics are listed below. The unusually low number of Bicentennial Quarters in the sample indicates that the economy of the Los Angeles Metroplex will be unusually strong over
the next year.
The Bicentennial Quarter Longitudinal Sampling Program results are based on the Bank of Colegrovia theory that Bicentennial Quarters in Las Vegas samples are a leading indicator for Los Angeles Metroplex
economy as bettors draw down their hoarded supplies of Bicentennial Quarters at the start of a recessionary period.

Bank Joke A young woman walks into a bank, struggling with a huge bag of quarters. She hauls the sack up to a teller window and
says, "I want to open an account."
"How long have you been hoarding these quarters, young lady?" asks the teller.
"Since I was going on Sixteen, but my sister whored half of them," says the girl.
