Hello friends I don't know if this subject has been brought up, but I've been wondering what the new American Park quarters were going to start with and the schedule. Yes, like a lot of people here I wish they didn't start on another new quarter series, but since they're going to do this I'll collect them. Anyway the US Mint has the list of the State Parks and a general timeline of when they will be published. It's located here: http://www.usmint.gov/mint%5Fprogra...siteRegisterThe coins being released in 2010 are: Arkansas Hot Springs National Park 4/20/1832 Wyoming Yellowstone National Park 3/1/1872 California Yosemite National Park 10/1/1890 Arizona Grand Canyon National Park 2/20/1893 Oregon Mt. Hood National Forest 9/28/1893 I don't know if I'll live long enough to complete this series, but it's another 11 years of commemorative coins. I wish the US would do like Canada does with their commemoratives years.... have a "regular" circulation coin then introduce the collector coins alongside them. |

I think I will pass on this new series. Too many new quarters to collect.

I have no intentions of going out of my way to find each and every coin, I will most likely just pull out one of each design as I come across them in pocket change. It's just not nearly as exciting as the State Quarters were. |

 If I come across it I'll keep it. But that's it. |

I will just do what I have done so far with the State Quarters, get my annual Mint Set and Silver Proof Set and then I have a PDS set. I gave up on getting the business strikes a long time ago since I hardly ever see the Philly issues and have not seen any of the 2009 Territories so far  Oh well, at least it gives me a few more release ceremonies to attend  |

Been away from numismatics for a while but still won't collect these. However, my Nephew is just getting into collecting and he'll love getting the proof set so it's not all together bad.

I will collect them because that is what I do, collect from circulation.  I will not obsess over them like I have done with other sets. I will just collect them as I find them in my change. |

I'm glad there are so many national park quarter haters out there. Less competition at the banks. I will definatley collect these and use the opportunity to learn more about each of the sites when they are released. This is a beautiful country and I'm very glad that they are honoring the park system like this.

I will collect them, as luck would have it I just finished my uncirculated Statehood Quarters Set, so I got the time. |

I'll probably collect these, even though it seems like it will be a boring series. I like visiting national parks, but whenever the mint showed a national park on a coin, the design was always uninteresting.

I feel good about not collecting them. Now that the territory quarters are coming to an end, I now feel some closure and can more focus on other coins.
