[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 1482225, member: 24633"]I think this needs clarification a bit. The State Quarters Program began in 1999. Quarters representing 5 states were issued each year in the order that those states joined the Union. This program continued until the 50th state, Hawaii, was honored in 2008. For each state, coins were struck in Philadelphia (P) and Denver (D) for circulation strikes and San Francisco (S) for silver and clad proofs. So, in all, there were four distinctly different coins, either by mintmark or by composition, struck for each state - 200 in all. I've excluded the satin finish coins since this program didn't start until 2005, and they were only produced by the Philadelphia and Denver Mints in the Uncirculated Mint Sets. Personally, I don't think it's necessary to include them unless you want to. Chris[/QUOTE]
