before I start buying coins I want to get as much as I can from circulation, if I fail to do this I will definitely hit you up. Thank you
Attachments aren't a problem. I enjoy looking at people's collections. Gives me the inspiration to complete my own.
A mistake in typing. I need a new phone but it will have to wait. Doctors are currently first. It should read the mint will produce other coins from the cent…. Sometimes my phone changes what I want to say but most times it’s me. Sorry for any confusion.
By now, ALL of the state quarters (both P & D) are pretty uniformly distributed around the country, in my opinion. Therefore trading across regions makes no sense at all. Especially in the N-S direction - P is/was east, D is/was west. Red Book.
I sent you a PM. As much fun as it is to search circulated change for silver state quarters just don't do it for me
With all due respect, isn't part of numismatics collecting what one likes and enjoys? Ok, maybe I said the wrong region, honestly the region doesn't matter to me, I like to look at it as if I'll be making a new friend wherever they are from. Maybe it'll be someone new to numismatics just as I am and they too are starting the 50 States Quarters. Doesn't have to make sense to you as long as it does to me. Wish you well.
I have all states and mints in uncirculated and all the proofs. I know they aren't worth much but are fun to collect and to look at occasionally.
I'm still annoyed the mint discontinued the Circulating Coin Set. For $5.95 you could get a complete set of business strikes, like a poor man's Mint Set (there's a thread someplace where I argued they were technically BU coins and Kurt agreed with me so I was obviously right ). It was a great (cheap) way to get all the quarters. They increased them to $8.95, then $10.00, then discontinued them altogether. It was a bad day for cheapskates.
My mother-in-law put together a made for circulation in Littleton Albums, Philadelphia and Denver Mint, State Quarter collection, which I inherited when she passed. I still have it and will pass it on to a grand nephew if he really becomes a collector. The State Quarters were also issued in Proof sets in clad and 90% silver. I have all of those because I have the Proof sets, but I would never break them up. Proof coins often do not fare well in cardboard albums. Even if they don't tone, you always run the risk of getting album slide marks on them.
I guess I'm going to make my own using cereal box, pasta boxes, etc staples and idk what to use that is clear to cover the coin. Any ideas?
