Then it backfired on them. How many people actually collected Washington quarters before the State Quarter program began compared to how many have...
That applies to banks as well, though. Guy~
Because the same old thing for 200 years gets boring and stagnant. Guy~
You guys can keep the snow! I'll live with my rainy days and 65 degrees here :D Guy~
I agree. Who here doesn't feel their collection is great? If you thought it was crap, I doubt you'd keep interest in the hobby. To me, every coin...
Nice! I've been on a large cent kick myself the past few years. Nothing fancy. I usually like f-vf condition. Guy~
Great to who? I think I'm great, but my wife will say otherwise. I guess if you strive for self-fulfilling greatness, then you are great. If you...

International debt isn't settled with printed money, first of all. Second, the BEP is printing 24/7 regardless of economic conditions simply to...
Thats what I was afraid of. Though I do believe if they brought back basining in coin fields like they did away with in the 90's, coin relief...
I've heard for as many years as I've been collecting the excuses given for the complete lack of interesting artwork on US coinage, and it seems...
