    The states quarters have several really nice varieties and some
    of these issues are really tough to find in nice condition. Even
    the Alaska quarters might be tough with nice surfaces and some
    are tough clean or well struck. The Delaware might be about the
    worst for strike.

    Look for the WI Denver for the two extra leaf coins and there are
    about ten of them with rotated reverses.

    I think the older clads are more interesting.

    The book was pretty weak on the clads. It's hard to tell if the site is a lot better.


    Thanks for the link anyway, though. I hadn't seen it before.

    Also check out all of CladKing's older posts. We, by the way, are trying to get him to write a book--or several--which would probably set a new bar for all things clad, but he has resisted our relentless pressure so far. One thing he taught me early on is to look for higher-grade '82 & '83 Ps and Ds of nickels, dimes, and quarters. These are very hard to come by, but one can get lucky. I found a beautiful '82 P nickel with prooflike surfaces while searching rolls. I never would have even paid attention to it without CK's advice.

    A G4 clad quarter would look fairly interesting.

    Does anybody have one to share?
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Welcome to the machine. image

    I like to use heritage auction that way you can see what the market is doing year to year.

    They have pics too.....archives

    As far as the main error it looks like the Wi extra leaf .... there are a few more but that one seems to have a nice premium.
