Beautiful! Very impressive.
I'm very surprised none of the clads and especially the early ones don't have mint set tarnish on them. Was there anything unusual about this group of sets or did they all come from the same source? My sets are almost all tarnished even even where stored under ideal conditions such as safety deposit boxes.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

Not sure how I missed this thread over the past year. Very impressive collection! I needed to break out the sunglasses while scrolling through.

I got the coins from multiple sources, but this last batch of BU's dated '68 - '99 were from one source that I buy from often and never had an issue.

Thanks Cetic - I do love my blinders - I always try to seek out the blaze white coins if I'm able.. (some of the ones have toned out - but they toned out very evenly, so I'm ok with that.)

Does anybody have a list of some of the varieties? This might be something interesting to look into.

Super set of quarters. As long as the US keeps minting quarters, can you ever say this set is complete!

Quote: can you ever say this set is complete! Well, yes and no - Yes all holes are filled, no because I don't have the 2023 quarters yet. In addition, I'm upgrading my well worn quarters up to BU grades. (all my '68 to present are BU, now working on '32-67...)

A truly impressive Washington quarter collection. I stuck to only silver in my set, a much more manageable endeavor.

Thanks Muddler - I wanted the 'most complete' set possible. Which includes all proof (silver and clad) the business strike S minted quarters (of which I bought extra pages for them and a separate album just for the Satin strikes.)
