I guess I just like gimmicks.  I am sure the quarters will keep on changing for as long as they make them. |

I like it, too. I have the original 1932-1998 series complete and have been collecting and completing all the special ones since then. Me too, almost all my quarters are in BU condition. (from 1963 to present) and working on '32-'62 upgrades to BU. |

All of my modern "gimmicky backed" quarters sit in a large vintage Anchor Hocking ashtray and I pull from them to pay for a mouse once a week to feed my snake.
I used to collect them but its just gotten to be too much and I'm not thrilled with many of the designs, so I ended that endeavor. I much prefer the eagle back.

@numismax it's nice to see somebody else shares my opinion! I thought there'd be more of us on a forum like this.

Since I maintain my quarter collection through roll searching, I have no problem holding onto MS grade examples of any quarter I find--always looking to upgrade as I find things. It's effortless, and only costs me 25 cents for each piece I decide to keep. I spend more on chocolate covered donuts.

Loved the ATB series but was ready for it to be done, it started off great but when they started minting 700 mil- 1 billion of each it wasnt fun anymore |

As a collector from down under, I quite like the U.S. quarters. I have nearly a complete collection since 1999, but prior to that I still have lots of holes to fill. This is my favourite...   |

I like the various quarters. And I collect all that have been struck since 1932. I enjoy the newer ones because each gives a little history of a state or person. And some of the new designs are beautiful.

Washingtons are complete to date. Just have to keep filling those holes.

I'm down to just two ATBs left for me to find (one I'd been searching for in vain turned up in a friend's change drawer recently). :D

I love the Washington quarter. I'm excited to finish the first page of my Dansco Album. I'm currently down to 3 quarters left. 1934 D, 1936 D and the 1940 D. Many are BU but I will be satisfied if I can find AU's for these last 3 quarters for a reasonable price. I checked with my 5 LCS and they have nothing. So scanning ebay and Etsy. Where else can I find good sales or auctions? P.S. I will need SMS and older pre 1968 proofs for similar display like Dearborn's excellent collection. |

I like the original design but do not care for any of the designs since 1999 (save for 2021). I usually poke around for varieties, like the Type B reverses. Most are not too hard to find. Have been looking for type C's and Type H's but no luck so far. I also pick for the 1958 Franklin type 2 reverses.

I do have a Washington quarter album up to 1998 complete except for the silver proofs. I am content to having one of each design of the rotating reverses so I have the silver proof sets to accomplish this. |
