What did/do you do with the extra 8 holes at the end of the ATB Dansco album? Do you fill them with other quarters? Token? Medals? Leave them open?

There are a lot of options since there weren't any slots for the S and W business strike.

Personally, I was thinking of silver reverse proof quarters (from the 2018 set), colourized quarters, or perhaps a proof Washington quarter partial date set (e.g. 1950-1957).

Didn't think of the 2018 silver reverse proof quarters but that's certainly a nice option. :-)

First row:
2021 Washington Crossing the Delaware P, D, S proof, and S silver proof.
Second row: 2026 US Semiquincentennial P, D, S proof, and S silver proof (pending release).

Quote: 2021 Washington Crossing the Delaware P, D, S proof, and S silver proof. I thought this coin set included 5 coins: P, D, S-clad proof, S-silver proof, and gold clad?

Quote: I thought this coin set included 5 coins: P, D, S-clad proof, S-silver proof, and gold clad? I do not know anything about a WCTD five quarters set or a gold clad WCTD quarter. If either exists, they are not a US Mint product. I get P&D from the annual uncirculated mint set, and the two proofs from the annual clad and silver proof sets. Four coins.

I think what is happening is that sellers buy empty 5-quarter set holders and then make their own sets for sale. That way, it looks like it is a official US Mint issue but in reality it is an aftermarket product.

You can always put in what you want and pop it out for something different latter...I'd go with W's or S's from circulation.

I had a look at your signature and the link forwarded me to a CC page showing a thread with photos of your Quarters set. However, apart from a row with "Washington Crossing the Delaware" (WCtD) quarters, lots of holes were still empty. Are you planning to fill these with....? Quote: You can always put in what you want and pop it out for something different latter...I'd go with W's or S's from circulation. I am currently leaning towards adding a row of P, D, S, S-proof, WCtD quarters, and/or add a row of medals/tokens that are related to National Parks or important landmarks that were not featured in the ATB set. For instance, the 2016 $5 National Park Service commemorative gold coin comes to mind (although it is too small for the hole and needs to be stabilized somehow).

UpdateI have decided to fill the first 3 holes with Washington CtW quarters (P, D, S-proof) and the next 5 holes with 2018 ATB reverse proof quarters. I will make a pic of the Dansco album page when it's done. Edit: typo.

Throw some proofs in there, or several Crossing the Delaware coins.
Lots of options.
