<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PdlJmpr, post: 1031897, member: 23797&quot;]&#039;</p><p>I got some of my states a little late and the grades show.&nbsp; I missed out on&nbsp; Guam completely and decided I would pay the premium to the mint not to&nbsp; have to stand in line with the rest of the circulation collectors.&nbsp; I still&nbsp; collect everything else from bank rolls and change, and I would have&nbsp; bought the &#039;09 &amp; &#039;10 nickels &amp; dimes if the mint had been&nbsp; selling them.&nbsp; Just waiting now for either the price to settle if they don&#039;t hurry up.&nbsp; 30 years of&nbsp; design repetition previous to 1999 are almost forgotten, but not enough&nbsp; to be disinterested or uninvolved in today&#039;s bonanza of choices.&nbsp; Full&nbsp; speed ahead on the Park Quarters.&nbsp; Have subscription, will collect.</p><p>My opinion on future designs is that the future cannot be predicted.&nbsp; But if it could be predicted I would say that congress and the mint will outdo themselves trying new gimmicks to increase public consumption. Don&#039;t hold your breath for retro coins in either design nor metal and both are definitely not in the reasonable realm of possibility.&nbsp; Pining for the good old days is a waste of breath.&nbsp; Today&#039;s coins go in the same red book without asterisks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
