I have a couple that were bought for me, but most collectors woudnt give them house room as they are seen as basicly disfigering the coin LOL now I am going to be contravesial here and say I like them :whistle:

 

I'd like to see them.

Go ahead a post them, I'll take a gander.

I have some that were given to me. I keep them because they were done well and are neat to look at in color.

I like colored coins if they're well-executed, not not enough to collect them myself. Please post pictures of yours.

 

All i'll post them in the morning for everyone to see at work right now so don't have them with me.

 

Here they are everyone enjoy:



On a side note does anyone know where i can find more of the holders like these are in for my other coins?

 

I happen not to like colored coins, I never did and I probably never will. I've always hated seeing colored ASEs at coin shows and elsewhere. I dont know, maybe I'm old fashioned but I'd rather see luster than paint.

 

They appear 'artfully' well done and I'm sure they have a niche for collectors. Remember they sell painted frying pans, wooden (treenware) spoons, and hand saws at antique shops all the time, LOL...

 

I would have those state quarters as like...an ornament.

A coloured state quarter would sell well to tourists as a momento of states they have been too.

 

Very colorful. IMO-This is a perfect series to be colored.

I like the color silver on state quarters but there is a market for the "colorized".
Whatever floats your boat.

i have sets in silver to clembo these where bought for me so i'll hold on to them

 

While I would not collect them I do find them interesting.

 

There are airtites made for this purpose. I have several silver rounds with a Christmas theme that are in red ring airtites with a small opening at the top to put an ornament hook through so they can hang on the tree. I don't know if they come in quarter size.

 

I guess I always liked the looks of colorized coins but never picked one up until this one came along............

 

Personally, I prefer natural toning on all coins.
