So I have always quite liked the standard Washington quarters. I have wanted to assemble a sort of set of them. I had started to assemble a clad set of business strikes, but kind of lost interest. I might give it another try, but try to collect the silver coins as well. Now, if I'm not looking for anything ridiculously high grade or uncirculated, I would assume this would be a bit cheaper and easier to accomplish? Is there any key dates that might set me back quite a bit? |

@hum, my recollection is that the '32 D and '32 S are the keys for this series, but neither are stoppers in circulated condition. There may be some semi-keys as well. Hopefully others will weigh in as they read this thread.

I agree, the Key quarters that can get costly will be the 1932 D and S (in higher grades)
This is definitely a doable set to assemble

I've watched a dealer price a complete album of typical found in circulation coins (i.e. pulled out when the silver-->clad changeover began in 1965).
He individually priced the 1932D and 1932S and priced the rest at melt. Typical 90% silver in AG-VF. Quarters were hard-working coins in those days.
He sold the album later that show for $25 more than he bought it for and called it a good deal.

I have a completed 1932-1998 set in a Dansco. It includes proof and silver proof issues from 1968 to 1998.  Quote:
the '32 D and '32 S are the keys for this series, but neither are stoppers in circulated condition. This is true. And I am so happy I bought them way back in 1997, long before the Statehood Quarters brought attention to them and jacked up the prices!  |

Nice! And of course, you can't find the Dansco Washington quarter albums now currently. Dansco's website doesn't have them. I don't think Amazon has them, either. I would most likely just do a business strike only album. |

Ah, I see. I was given to believe that was their website for years.
Do they even have an actual website?
