I LIKE MANY OF THEM BUT I FEEL THAT ALASKA AND HAWAII ARE THE MOST THOUGHT OUT AND BEST DESIGNED.............MAYBE BECAUSE THEY WENT LAST THEY LEARNED FROM THE REST......VERY NICE TO SEE THEM ALL OUT AGAIN-THANKS AMR

Looks like I'm with Joe. I don't collect the State quarters but when Alaska and Hawaii came out, I went to a few banks to get 2 rolls of each. They are the only ones I like. I guess there were too many committees making too many wrongful decisions in "suggesting" changes to be made on submitted quarter designs. The Minnesota quarter: The boat shouldn't have a motor on it (it does). The fisherman shouldn't be standing in a boat (He is). We should enlarge the fishermen to show that they are wearing lifejackets (They didn't). And one wonders why those quarters, at least to me, were junk.

One of my favourites is Colorado...  My vote for the worst one would be Connecticut. Is a tree all they have to offer?  |

Which coins are you missing? I'm sure we should be able to come up with the ones you need.
An idea to help you avoid paying the import fees your country imposes, if anyone here can assist with supplying the 4 coins you need, PM them the address of your friend in the US, coins get sent to the friend who I believe will be visiting you later this year, and hopefully no import fees involved!

EG, I have Unc rolls of the Alaskan and Hawaii state quarters. Surely there must be a 'Winner' in the rolls. Sadly, I'm a little illiterate in picture taking and posting of pics on the net. I am now being taught by a computer 'geek' from a state college where I live......he's a student and when he sometimes informed his teacher how to do things, the college hired him part time to solve the college's computer problems.

 Hello EgCollector: Nice collection and wonderful preservation. Have you collected P or D mint-wise or both combined??? The Statehood brought in many coin collectors, back into this hobby George
