Craig - Thanks for finally getting all the coins imaged in your set and sharing them with the rest of us. I think everybody realizes what a great set it is but now that we can actually see the coins it is that much more impressive. For those that haven't taken a look lately it's worth the time. There are some amazing toners and a few nice white ones (I'm sure Craig is trying to do something about those)image. Here's the set..

Thanks again, Craig!

Rick

P.S. We will be patiently waiting for you to get the reverses imaged and up for all of us to see.image

    Man, I am not a huge fan of quarters, but that is one stunning set. It really does show off all forms of their beauty.

    Thanks for the images--it's images such as these that make the registry concept truly worthwhile!

    A truly amazing set not just for the grades, but for the eye appeal and the hard work that went in to building it. image

    I was mesmerized looking at the images. As I went from coin to coin, my focus remained on the incredibly clean cheeks... on every coin.

    Craig has accomplished what very few Washington quarter collectors have...he has combined the highest grades and high technical merits within those grades for each of his coins, in addition to outstanding eye appeal/beauty and color. I know Craig well enough to say that he is always seaching to find a coin that is just a little prettier, or with one or two fewer ticks than one he already has. Suffice to say, Craig continues to strive to improve upon what is already THE SET which all other high-quality sets will always be compared against. In my opinion, it will be the best set of all time for ALL TIME!

    Craig, from me to you, pal, you have one hellava set. I won't say my set pales by comparison, but after looking at all the images of your coins you now have posted, I'll just say that I'm humbled by what you have accomplished...keep up the good work. If there truly is any room for improvement, you can do it!

    Hats off to Craig...a great collector, but more than that, a genuinely nice guy! image

    I just spent about an hour looking at those pics. Awesome coins. Obviously built over a long time with care.

    Wow, the 32P in MS66 also really caught my attention - early coins fully toned are REALLY tough to find! Sweeeeeeet!

    Manofcoins: Don't thank US for looking. Thank YOU for sharing! Be careful that you don't let the pictures of the coin change your thinking of how the coin really looks to you in person. You have a lovely set and it should give you lots of joy in the coming years as you tinker with it.

    My prediction wasn't so bad re price direction of the quarters? Eh?
