It sounds like a lot of fun.

I've been doiing this for years now and it gets harder and harder all the time to find new coins and upgrades. I still get to pull out lots of varieties and there are lots of new types issued every year now days but it's been over a year since I got a good upgrade. That one was a nice decent AU well made '73-D quarter. It replaced a fairly attractive VF+ so was a huge upgrade. I have the complete set now in XF- and better but a few are not very well made so need upgrading.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

Thanks for all the words of support ...... this project has taken some time ..... I suppose over $2000 in change to look through.

Anyways ..... to set the record straight ..... my goal was a type set of State Quarters ..... not a full P,D,S set .....

Sooooo .... despite the kind words from many of you .... including rastatodd ...

I see your short a Wisconsin D mint


The actual fact is I did not find ANY Wisconsin ..... mint does not matter to me for my type set!

I've started the fun part of selecting which of the various 49 coins to place into my album ...... that will take some time.

Willing to trade any of my Philly mint coins for any Mint Wisconsin!

That hole is going to bug me badly.
