HOW MANY STATE QUARTERS DO EACH OF US OWN?

I am not a dealer and I own over 1850 of them! (12 Rolls Ohio "P") How many do you own? Just curious to see the average per forum member.

    I have one album set, all issues. Add that to the regular Washington issues and the proofs back to 40, and that's a lot of Washingtons.image

    I have all 50 of the proofs in PCGS PR69DCAM and about $200 in circulated ones that I put in my ceramic monkey bank from my pocket change image

    (edited to include a verb have in the sentence so it would resemble the language we've all agreeded to use).

    Well, I've got a set from circulation complete through Maine except it's missing the "P"- MS.
    That's 45. I've got five of each mint set since the beginning except the current one. That's
    another 200. I've got two errors I've found in circulation (one's a die trial!!). For a total of
    227. I've also got about thirty gems from circulation so call it 277.






    jeesh- math spelling.

    I've got:
    99 silver proof sets = 15
    00 silver proof sets = 15
    01 silver proof sets = 45
    02 silver proof sets = 30
    03 silver proof sets = 115

    99 mint sets = 3
    00 mint sets = 3
    01 mint sets = 3
    02 mint sets = 10
    03 mint sets = 10

    proof sets= 3 of each

    BU rolls (from banks) = about 50

    Working on a Whitman Deluxe folder, collecting from circulation. Waaay behind on the P mints, have most of the Ds (west coast) Will pay no more than 25c. per coin. Expect by the time the Ps work their way over here, many will be Ef or worse. Not trying particularly hard (not searching rolls or anything, just change from stores etc.) having a good time at it!

    actually I have several rolls that I sell at face value, by the each, or give to YN's that come into my shop and sell to older folks

    also a set of PCGS 69DCAM's and a book for me and one for the Grandson

    I get the USet, PS, and SPS for each year.
    Circulation-wise, I get the best of each, and put it on a quarter map; then I try to get the best D (live in NY) and 2nd best P, and put them in a pop-in book; the rest I aim to get as many as I can in quarter rolls of 40 each. I have at least one for everything up until NY, and 2 of some of them. I don't know right now how much I have in the completed rolls, but the ones in incomplete rolls total $86.50.
    Use dollar coins when you get them! Do you want to see them die out, too?

    A handful of UNC and PR issues, including all the proof sets.

    Then I got bored and disguisted with US issues and became a heathen darksider.

    There are still COINS to be collected!

    All the silver and clad proofs + 1 each from circulation and not counting those in my change jar which will get banked. So that makes 75 if I counted right image Well I guess I don't have all circ coins from '03 yet so maybe 73 or 72 of them image

    silverandvinyl,
    I get 5 rolls each mint "P" & "D"s shortly after each issue and search for my few keepers. I get them from john's quarter shop in original bank wrappers & housed in square hard plastic tubes. 10 rolls with S&H about $127. I usually find enough errors or nice coins to resell at coin-club auction to break even. Also got rolls of back issues I needed from John. If you need the De.Penn. or NJ. look him up; johnkasp@msn.com

    I just looked:

    3 - Md, Ny, and Pa. All D mint.

    Plus a receipt from the grocery store last night, two nickels (2001D and 2000D), four cents (1995D, 1998D, 2002D, and 2003D), and the spare key to my wife's car. She got locked out of it last night and I had to rescue her.

    My wife is not a collector, but I bought her a blue whitman album and find a nice Mint state P and D for each state as they come available and house them in that. Also, each year as the silver proof set comes available, I buy one for her.

    thats all,

    as I am not a modern era collector.

    5-Dansco BU+proofs albums Delaware-Missouri, 3 rolls each of BU P+d Delaware thru missouri.

    My home state favorite: 7 pcgc ms68 Ohio-p, looking for a Ohio-d pcgs ms68 (less than 110 bucks)

    Many alabama, missouri die crack quarters.

    10 sets each of clad+silver proof sets (1999-2003)

    Any guess what a 1999 silver proof set will be worth in 2009? 2020? My guess: 400.00, 700.00


    Can you believe it? After the Arkansas business strikes come out in October, the State quarter progam will

    be half over. Time flies.

    Like others I'm putting together a set with silver proofs for my wife--who asks me periodically "Have I found any new quarters lately?" In the beginning I was hoping that the push for DC and territory State Quarters would go away--but now I'm not sure. It might be interesting to see a State Quarter from Samoa! It would add a year to the series--and God Knows they couldn't get any uglier. Missouri as a case in point--the original design was beautiful but look what the Mint did--the trees look like brocolli (sp?) stalks.
