coretj Valued Member United States 436 Posts	Posted 03/25/2010 11:04 pm I'm in for the subscription (2 roll set) mainly because I think it will be extremely difficult to get them from circulation. I will probably sell 49 unc sets 12 years from now Report this Post to the Staff

TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 03/26/2010 08:28 am I'm just not sure I'll be collecting these. I don't think every year of coins should be a commemorative. Plus I think it will be difficult getting the coins for face value. Report this Post to the Staff
pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 03/26/2010 8:54 pm Thanks, coretj. I'm glad I don't have to come up with an attractive design for this one. The Flint Hills are awesome, but depicting a huge field of grass on a coin? Ha! Report this Post to the Staff
fcrazo Pillar of the Community United States 651 Posts	Posted 03/26/2010 9:06 pm Hey why not collect the Mexican 100 Peso series 1 and series 2. Now that's what I call artwork (series 2). Report this Post to the Staff
lizzyjo Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 03/27/2010 01:33 am I'm excited about being able to collect a series from start to finish from circulation. Just today I found my second-to-last D-mint State Quarter. I enjoy being able to fill those empty album holes. I also really like the drawings of the new coins, and I hope the real coins look just as good. Yeah, yet another series may be overkill, but what are you going to do? Oh, I'm going to Yosemite in a few weeks! FTA: The obverse of each coin features a portrait of George Washington designed by John Flanagan. The portrait has been restored with the original details used on the 1932 Washington quarter to bring out the details and beauty of the original model. Does this mean that the portrait won't have all those funky hair swirls in it? If you don't know what I mean, compare George's hair on an older quarter with a newer quarter. I don't like the newer ones. Report this Post to the Staff
Brucec Pillar of the Community United States 1026 Posts	Posted 03/27/2010 12:08 pm Well I will most likely get the yearly proof sets and silver set that will have these. Then the encircled coin set will have the P&D. I do agree since the banks will not have these they will be harder to get them. Question will these be in circulation a all? If so I think I will get them as I see them in change I know one think I will not make the mistake of getting the 1st day cover series like I did the State Quarters I have the complete 1st day cover state and territories in 1st day cover albums hope the grand kids can get what they cost me in 20 years.

I agree, I am not a big fan of the "spaghetti hair" on the ultra-moderns.

Brucec Pillar of the Community United States 1026 Posts	Posted 03/29/2010 8:33 pm Well just thought I will wait and see how hard these are to locate in circulation I am sure the US Mint will be selling the rolls for a long tome so we should have time to see if we start seeing these in circulation 1st.

Brucec Pillar of the Community United States 1026 Posts	Posted 03/29/2010 10:04 pm Hot Springs Opening Ceremony WOW For once looks like something may work out for me was just looking at Coin World and saw the Hot Springs National Park quarter opening ceremony will be held at the the National Park April 20th WELL just so happens we will be on our way back from Arkansas Pass Texas to Pennsylvania and going right past Hot Springs Arkansas then. SO I am making reservations there tomorrow at an RV Park and attending the opening ceremony. It said one person can get up to 10 rolls with the Hot Springs National Park wrappers on them. I plan to get 10 rolls and the wife can get 10 rolls. This will be the 1st time something like this worked out for me. Can't stand in lines so will have to take my electric mobility scooter along it is a pain but the only way I can do this. Have to call the National Park tomorrow and make sure this is going to happen April 20th as printed in Coin World. Edited by Brucec 03/30/2010 11:09 am Report this Post to the Staff

Brucec Pillar of the Community United States 1026 Posts	Posted 04/16/2010 6:29 pm http://cedarcreekrvclub.com/floodof2010.html Well forget how I said 1st time something worked out for me. As you can see from the link to the pictures above our RV is stuck in Orange Grove TX at my brothers. It has rained for 5 days here now and could rain for 5 more days. We are stick in the mud and can't get out till it drys out. We are going to try and get some stone not sure if that will help. We did try boards as you can see them now floating in the water. Anyway if I now make the National Park Quarter ceremony I Hot Springs AR April 20th it will be a miracle. So looks like I will not get my 20 rolls of quarters I am so mad was looking forward to this.

Brucec Pillar of the Community United States 1026 Posts	Posted 04/17/2010 4:38 pm WOW good news for me we got the RV out of the mud so we will make Hot Springs after all yes long story but finally got unstuck. So we will get to Hot Springs April 19th. Not sure if the post office will be open to post mark rolls or not most likely not but hope so. I am a happy camper again and hope to get 20 rolls of quarters. Report this Post to the Staff
