Overall the ATB series has better and more coherent designs. Lessons learned from the Statehood series.

Likewise. There are some designs I think were very nice from the Statehood Quarters, but overall I do prefer the ATBs.

I agree with both of you, the ATBs are mostly the better ones.

Tough call but I'll have to go with the ATB even though it has some very similar designs for 2014 and 2015.

I like the Statehood Quarters better.

The statehood designs have more connection and meaning to me. I have been to only a very few of the places on the ATB designs so there is less connection to me.

I have been to a few of the places used so far and most others don't really interest me.

Who else thinks that we should go back to a traditional, 98 Warshington-style quarter? All of these commemoratives are devaluing the current ones in my opinion. What do you think?

If you've been to the Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Yellowstone, sure...they're massive, amazing parks. Lots of visual appeal and are awe-inspiring. But there are some parks/monuments/forests/etc. that don't (and can't) command the kind of wow factor. They're still worth a visit. And then maybe a beer at a local watering hole near by

1. ATB has better designs (IMO)
But .... I like them all

2. Not sure what you mean "All of these commemoratives are
devaluing the current ones in my opinion."

I am not sure what you mean?
But ... Washington quarters were not collected anywhere
near the level they are today, because of the State
quarter program. I feel the quarter program 1999 to
date has brought a large number of collectors into
the hobby. Collectors that started collecting other
series.

And ...Because of the State Quarters, the priced of
1932 - 1998 set of quarters have increased in value.

I think Celticknot is heading in the right direction.
Let's vote on having Fuzzy317 jump on his motorcycle
and not stop until he has paid a visit to each ATB
Park. Then give us a report on which would be the
best for us to visit

I am currently taking a break from motorcycle riding, but Hawaii might be a problem if I hadn't already been there.

I was thinking Gaum or American Samoa would be tougher than Hawaii.

I guess if your taking a break from riding, all your member brothers will
be stuck not knowing the best sites to visit.

I do not like either. I am liquidating my 2010 2011 ATB and 2009 territory for $0.50 each.
