<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 25586983, member: 101855&quot;]I would get him an album that has spaces for the quarters. One of the ways to tell if a person is a potential collector is to see if they have a strong desire to fill all of the holes. If they don&#039;t, they might not have the collecting bug.</p><p><br /></p><p>He should start with the coins you find from circulation. There still should be a lot of State Quarters and everything that comes after them.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Proof coins with the &quot;S&quot; mint marks are something else. You will have to pay for almost all of those unless you get very lucky. I once got a modern Proof quarter in change, but that is a once in a lifetime experience.</p><p><br /></p><p>Those coins are also very fragile and easily damaged or can simply &quot;go bad&quot; in the album. I am not a fan of modern Proof singles. I prefer them in the sets.</p><p><br /></p><p>But that is just me. I&#039;ve been a collector for 66 years.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
