I have two boys who constantly look at all the quarters which come through the household in hopes to add to their collection. They have all quarters from 1999 through 2005, but are in need of some quarters from 2006 and 2007. Knowing a lot of people on this board live all over the USA I was hoping someone might help out with sending me some quarters
They do not need "mint" quarters for their collection. Simple used quarters will do, however, try to find some without big scratches or scum on them if possible. :)
The state quarters they collect are from the Denver mint (quarter has a "D" on the front) and the Philadelphia mint (quarter has a "P" on the front).
Here is the list of state quarters they still require:
2006 Nevada D (need 1)
2006 Colorado D (need 1)
2006 South Dakota P (need 2)
2007 Washington P (1)
If anyone has any quarters, please indicate which ones you have.
Oh yeah, I will pay you via PayPal for the quarters and shipping of course.
Let me know if you can help out by PM'ing me or emailing direct. Much appreciated.
Regards,

Actually, the "D" stands for the Denver mint.
I'll take a look through my pile of change and see what I can find. Any interest in the new Washington dollar coins?
-
I even knew that it was Denver and not Delaware ..... :dizzy: .... I updated the post
No thanks on the Washington dollars ..... they only are collecting the state quarters.
Thanks for looking !!!
-
I'lll just PayPal you the quarters -- that way it will get to you quicker ;D
-
Yes saint, please PayPal me $50.00 in quarters then I will pay you $50.00 via PayPal to cover the cost :P
-
OK everyone ..... search through your quarters ....... :cheers:

And I'm looking for Washington myself. I think I MIGHT have Nevada
and Colorado, will check. The Dakota's were hard to come by for me.
-
Ok, I removed those quarters from the request list sinc they are not released yet ....... thanks for the update.
Also, thanks for looking through your quarters ..... :)
-
:( Sorry, looked at what I had, no luck.
Maybe a bank...?

I've got a Nebraska (D) and a North Dakota (D) that you're welcome to. I can't believe I don't have the west coast ones, since I live in WA. If you want the first two, I can look around a bit before sending them in case I can locate a few of the others for you - probably would save on shipping.

I've got 2 Washingtons and 2 more, Nevada or Nebraska, I can't remember. I put them on the side for you.
If anyone is starting up a set and needs to aquire some of the old ones, I have loads of 1999/2000/2001 dated quarters to offer.
I save all the 1980's ones for my MAME machine, it seems to run better on them. :laugh2:

My girlfriend is also collecting these. Some of them are hard to find in Hawaii. She has to resort to playing what she calls the "quarter game" using the Pepsi machine in our building. See puts in 4 quarters and presses the return button to see if any quarters she needs come out.
