This is the only album I can find that should hold all the clad Washington quarters. Has anyone purchased and/or used this album in the past? My birthday is coming up and people are asking what I want so I am getting a list together of albums/folders which I need.

Thanks in advance for any information.

Can you be a little more specific.

I did a quick online search and did not find a 1965-1998
Quarter album.

I see Littleton has one that is 1968-1998.

I would like to give a opinion ... But not sure what album your looking at

Not sure why that one did not come up on my search ..

and not sure I did not check Wizard ...

Jbuck .. not sure if that is the one the OP is looking at,
but it could be.

I had a album like that in State Quarters, 1999 - 2008.
I sent it to another member here.

It seemed like a very good album, but most of mine are
Dansco.

I would be tempted to pick up one of these, next time
I make a Wizard order.

For those thinking about ordering from Wizard, it is best
to make a order over $50, to get the best break on shipping.

The album might be a very good album (fun) to put together.
Be nice to do it in all BU ... Just those 1982 and 1983
holes would be hard to find in better grade. And others
here on CCF say the 1969 quarters are hard also.

Op .. let us know if this is the album your thinking about.

Yes this is the album I am looking at. I am putting together an order for Wizard and this is one of the items I am going to get. I was just wondering if anyone else had had one in the past because the description of the album is very sparse, no pictures, etc. I've already collected the Washington quarters for these years but they're dispersed in four different folders and I am ready to consolidate them into one album.

I only need the 1968-D to complete the series. I've gotten the 1968 no mintmark about 10 times but can't seem to find that 1968-D. It's been a great set to collect. I will continue to upgrade as coins in better condition come along.

Once I get this album I can start on the second set!

I have never used one, but these US Mint albums are made by Whitman, so they should be just as good as the Whitman classic albums. I have seen them at Hobby Lobby and Barnes & Noble, so you may want to check them out in person if either of those places are convenient.

If you go on line to the Whitman web site you'll see that they are owned by Harris. Harris now makes Harris, Whitman and those that your looking at. Also, try requesting a catalog from them. Good news is Wizzard and other on line coin supply companies carry those. Bad news is almost everything Harris produces is made in China. Like most Albums they are OK BUT pages have a tendency to have the pages lift a bit off at the corners when turning pages.

Do note that H.E. Harris was renamed Whitman Publishing after the buyout.

I've noticed that with some of my Whitman Classics. I will probably end up just gluing down the corners that are lifting off the cardboard backer.
