Since the Washington quarter was stopped being minted in 1999 due to the ' State Quarters', does anyone think the Washington quarter will be brought back or is this it?

I would doubt they would bring back the original reverse. I would think they would do something different, after another 11 year run on the ATB Quarters.

To me it is still a Washington quarter with added bonus of being a State Hood or a Parks reverse. What about the Bicentennial quarter. Would you call that a stopping and restarting point of the Washington quarters?

Makes me wonder what they will do in 2076.

Here is how I see it...

The 1976 Quarter has the same obverse (save for the dual date) as any other 1932 to 1998 Quarter (save for the continual and easily overlooked changes that all coin designs have each year). The bicentennial was a special, two year (1975-1976) modification to the (standard) Washington quarter and is part of that regular series.

The Statehood, Territorial, DC, and ATB Quarters were designed to be different and I believe intended to be distinct from the original Washington quarter. They have a significantly different obverse: a smaller head with rearranged (Liberty, In God We Trust), added (United States of America, Quarter Dollar), and removed (the date) legends. Whether you break these down into one (Commeerative Quarters), two (Statehood/DC/Territorial and ATB), or three (Statehood, DC/Territorial, and ATB) series is up to you.

Personally, I see the Washington quarter as having three distinct series.

Hey jbuck and just carl, are you using my quote about the Bicentennial quarter to poke fun at me or to make a legitimate point?

I cannot speak for Carl, because his is a notorious prankster.

As for myself, I was making a point, or more accurately, I was giving my opinion on the question you asked.
