<p>[QUOTE="phankins11, post: 2120090, member: 70703"]So I've been playing with another concept for a web site over the last few months. I'm a Washington Quarter enthusiast....1932-64 is my favorite period, and when I need to I give love to the clads up through 1998. Although the Statehood quarters pulled me in to serious collecting, that series is my least favorite in the Washington Quarter family. The State Parks have appealed to me somewhat and I've attributed that to the uniformity of the reverse designs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyhoo, unless I've completely missed it in my searching, I wanted a Washington Quarter site that was similar in function as the lincolncentresource.com web site. I central place to pull in all possible resources along with educational information about the series. A place where I could share what I've found, a place to bring the experienced WQ collectors to help contribute to the site, and a place where a beginner could come and be overwhelmed with real and reliable information about the WQ.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is totally a personal project for me. An ulterior motive is that it's facilitated my learning of the series much more substantially than just reading books and articles. I learn by doing or seeing.
