My first quarter type set is housed in my 7070. I was inspired to do this once I saw another member post a picture of this quarter type holder here on CCF. I finally found one of these empty holders and the hunt was on. I wanted to do a type set with the first year of issue for each type. So here it is:   Edited by Connor

Like the idea. I wonder if capital makes type holders for other denominations?

What jumps out at me is the stark color difference between silver and clad Washington's

That is really nice! I like the idea of collecting the first year of issue for each type.  |

nice set!
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

That's an odd looking 1916 SLQ  I like that holder; that's an older style capital. the newer ones and also the current holder have a space for the Washington bicentennial quarter. there is also a holder that has an spot for the pre 1829 bust struck with no collar. My holder from a few months ago I have swapped out a few and added two since then.  the one for pre 1829 bust has a slightly larger opening  |

Steele....I don't think there are many left of the older white holders. I got pretty lucky and paid $5 for this used one.
I was waiting for someone to say something about the 1916 SLQ. Let's just say if I had a 1916 it would not be in this holder!

Connor, that is a sweet holder and that was a really sweet price. did it come with the box? that's one of the best parts of finding the older holders when they are larger than 2x6.
