What is your thinking about the July 4th quarter being added to a type set collection, or just adding any or all of the 2026 quarters would be enough.

strictly speaking, i'd think it's a variety and not a real type
I would think that its part of a type set.
If you dont have it you will be missing a coin that was minted in 2026.
Be patient though. The price will come down.

Call it an 09-S VDB and your set is complete.
Only if the individual collector chooses to . But only 250,000 of those will have one. How many holes in an album or folder will remain empty forever ?

In my opinion, no.
Then you'd have a complete set of Shell tokens.
What is your take on the State quarter series and all the other series that came after them? Should they all be included in type sets? If not, then you have your answer. If so, you might still have questions.

For a type set, it should be considered the same type as the other quarters issued this year, all of which would be confined to a single spot in that set.
Now for a year, mint, and "finish" set, it's an absolute must.

I’m not planning to include it as the motivation behind it bothers me - it’s more gimmick than design element. Once it’s cheap enough I may weaken tho. We’ll see.
Aren't the State Quarters, America The Beautiful Quarters, American Women Quarters, Presidential Dollars, Innovation Dollars all gimmicks?
I'm going to add it to my 250th anniversary album (I'm still working on it) being i think it fits better there.
Limiting production is a major clue.
I wouldn't add it as a required coin, but I am personally adding one

I'm looking for one with a hole in it for my type set.
For me, when I hear type set I'm thinking 7070. It gets complicated.
Am I ever unobservant! I just realized that the added “July 4” is considered a “privy mark”. I don’t consider privy-marked coins as a separate type. So I absolutely won’t add to my type set. I call these “privy marketing” coins.
Im happy with what im working on now. Maybe if I had an extra page to put it in then ok
Yes, you could make a custom page for the back of your 7070. I made one from a blank Dansco small dollar page. There's really no limit to what you could do.
Dave, I can make that happen. Would you prefer a square nail ?

They surely are gimmicicks to sell circulating coinage to the public for a profit. They do not need a picture to spend for 25 cents. However they do serve another purpose which is to get more people into the hobby of collecting.
Good points and bad points to all modern coinage. Whatever floats your boat.
No
