I went to the US Mint store in DC, and they have a change machine, where you can put in a $1 or a $5 and get the equivalent amount in Guam...

Yowza. Correct me if I'm wrong -- but that makes Guam (counting total combined) as the first quarter with under 100m since 1960, and the lowest...
Elaine -- could you clarify what else, above, is "not final" ? Or is it _all_ final except for the 2009 Sac?
They are "proof" finish, no? Or, perhaps I'm displaying my ignorance, there's no such thing as "proof non-satin" vs "proof satin" is there? As...
Yup -- pretty handy! I do commute from Fairfax! But I'm in a carpool (2-person carpool with my wife, so we can do HOV-2 on 66). . . . . wow,...

Well, the wiki-police are pretty good about getting rid of anything that even whiffs of a copyright infringement. But more importantly, if you...
yes -- I own "XE3" (2009 Presidential $1 Coin Uncirculated Set). They are most definitively regular-ole' business strikes. I took them out of...
Just a couple of observations, and fishing for your thoughts: I am really amazed at how many total coin-neophytes collect state quarters from...
