Helpingmyfriend New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/23/2016 5:25 pm Greetings everyone, I am not a coin collector, but I am helping out a friend who is. He was pretty close to filling out a U.S. Quarter book until the other day he was involved in a car accident. Now he may never walk again. When he is healthy enough he will go back to France to finish rehabilitation. He is just a brilliant young man. I wanted to help him complete the book. He was just collecting circulated quarters. Nothing in the mint. The three quarters left are American Samoa 1900, Virgin Islands 1917, Obverse 1999-2008. It's not imperative that I find these quarters, but it be nice to complete it for him. The young man is highly intelligent and with most intelligent people these little things tend to create a little void in their OCD DNA. If someone could point me in the right direction or help me out. I would be appreciate it. Everybody have a good week. Erik Report this Post to the Staff

We have a forum dedicated to it... http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...FORUM_ID=147 The hole "Obverse 1999-2008" can be filled with any Statehood Quarter (the obverse is the same on every one).

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 03/23/2016 7:07 pm It's likely if you went to the bank and bought a few rolls (which you could turn back in) that with a little searching you might find the two he needs for just 25c each! My condolences for the young man's tragedy. My sincere thanks to you for attempting to do this for him. Adding more happy juice to the world is what keeps us all going. Report this Post to the Staff

BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4591 Posts	Posted 03/24/2016 09:58 am Definitely a nice thing to do for a friend. If he's up for the company, the two of you sorting through rolls of coins might keep him occupied and give him some feeling of accomplishment too. Plus you can put two quarters back in and get your money back. You can also buy them on ebay for a few dollars. http://www.ebay.com/sch/DC-US-Terri...66676/i.html - I see both offered for $1.59 each with free shipping. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
