[QUOTE="cdcda, post: 50787, member: 941"]The 50 States Quarter Program is an overwhelmingly positive step for our circulating coinage. It has introduced countless new collectors to numismatics, has created collector and non-collector interest in our coinage, and has produced some of the most beautiful circulating coins produced by our mint in many, many years. Yes, they may not have the significance or beauty of say a Walking Liberty Half Dollar, but do not underestimate them and their impact on our hobby and the future of our coinage. And, think about the excitement for a new, young collector who, knowing only the Washington Quarter, could look forward to five new quarters a year for his/her Whitman album. They could have been done better - higher quality designs, higher relief, etc. - but even as they are, they are the most exciting thing that has happened to United States Circulating coinage since the World War II era - in my opinion.[/QUOTE]
