For the collectors that like State Quarters. Do you collect satin State Quarters, separate from business strike? I have been picking up a lot of 2005 and 2006 mint sets. Made me start wondering if I should be breaking up all the quarters. What would be cooler .. for future selling. Leave in in the mint cello or put together rolls of each state. Here are some I picked up today  I am pretty sure I am getting close to where I could put together rolls of 05 and 06 satin quarters.... if I mix P and D. But I think it might be better to make full P and full D rolls. Or just leave in the cello .. Hard for me to figure out what collectors will do about the satin coins .... be nice to know if album manufactures will add them to albums. |

I collected a Satin set as well as a business strike set. I keep my satin state & ATB Quarters as well as S mint business strike ATBs in a plain quarter album. |

I wasn't a fan of the satin finish. When I was collecting the statehood series, I was buying mint sets for the quarters. But when satin finish came along I just bought regular business strikes to match what I already had.

or put together rolls of each state. Definitely leave them in the mint cello. The only things you're going to do by cutting them out is introduce the possibility of contamination nicks/scratches. Keeping them individually in the cello will obviously take up more space than a roll, but I think collectors will pay more for them. Some who can't visually tell the difference might even not believe they're satin. BTW, I love the satin finish, even more than a proof finish. |

I put the regular Circ Strikes and Clad Proofs in one Dansco. I put the Satins in a Circ Strike only Dansco. And I put the SF Quarters and Silver Proofs in another circ and proof. Dansco. I think that if you are collecting a COMPLETE set you need all these.
That, friend is a lot of quarters!

AlbumAccumulator, I do the exact same thing as you... I have a separate blank quarters dansco for the stains 05-2010 and as mint business strikes.
I also have a separate dansco for my proof and silver proof atbs. My folks bought me a p/d dansco and I didn't have the heart to return it or whatever, I went ahead and used it.

JMKendall ...Hondo I have several different Washington Danscos. I would have to check, but I think all of mine 2005 through 2010 have satin coins. I also have the biggest binder Dansco has, put in 2X2 pages .. and put in the satin coins. (I know I could just keep the coins in the mint sets, but I like albums)  Lincoln cents  Nickels  Dimes  Quarters   Half Dollar  Sacs  Just noticed I need a couple Kennedy's .. I think I did a set for someone .. and took them out. Not sure what I did with the presidential .. either Dansco or .. I have a 2X2 box full of satin coins |

That, friend is a lot of quarters! I buy a lot of sets  There is a stack twice that size, sitting at the LCS waiting for me to pick up next week. My idea ...might be crazy, is to put together solid rolls of each State Quarter .. well at least for 2005, 2006 and 2007. For example a roll of 2006 D Nebraska satin... etc Here is some I have not even started on yet  |

Leave in in the mint cello or put together rolls of each state. If selling is the goal I would probably leave them in the cellophane. However, it would be tempting to build rolls, assuming you have enough to make complete rolls for each state. |

I have a hard time breaking mint or proof sets, but I wanted to do a set of uncirculated State Quarters after finishing a circulated set. I decided that I would only break a set if I had a complete set in my collection. When researching, I realized I wanted to have all the coins, not just a P & D. I have been purchasing sets, breaking them, and making an album of 2x2's. If I was looking to buy the satin coins, I would hesitate to buy if they weren't in the cello. The uncirculated sets was the only place they were available, the rolls and bags of coins were regular business strikes 2005-2010.(as I understand it) I would need good pictures and some sort of trust with the seller before purchasing off the internet. (or a good return policy, but who wants to go through that hassle) I found this post trying to find out how many quarters are needed to make a complete set including proofs, silver proofs, uncirculated satin, and uncirculated brilliant coins. |

I have a hard time breaking mint or proof sets At coin shows dealers often have bins of partial mint sets. They've already done the damage, so you can take advantage. |

Huh didn't realize there was an entire line up of different finishes for the quarters... I think I will just stick to my silver proof date sets. But that is definitely a lot of quarters! And curious... that Dansco with all the different pages of coins is a binder? O.o something else I need now to go along with my other Danscos... thanks alot ;)

The album with all the 2X2's is a Dansco dealer stock book. Album #7000 http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/pro...l-pages.htmlI think it comes with 9 Pages, 12 coins per page. I like them, have 3 or 4 of them. The album pictured has a set of Satin coins from Lincoln cent through Sac dollar. Edit - to be more clear, the album has the same type cover as the other Dansco albums, but instead of the regular pages is has pages that hold 2X2's. it does go well with other Dansco albums. Edit #2 ... I forgot .. instead of using the regular Dansco dealer stock book with the 9 pages. I purchased the largest blank folder Dansco makes, I think 1 1/4 binder, then put 11 2X2 pages into it.

Yeah I looked up the 1 1/4 binder and it looks very tempting to put all of my world coins I am accumulating into... since I will never be able to get type sets for all those countries but rather a binder I can at least put all the different ones I have into it that matches my other Danscos :)
