homeschoolmom Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 We are collecting all of the state quarters. After the first year or so, we discovered that we were having trouble finding them from some states... like they just never got here... especially from the Philadelphia mint (They must not have made it across the River.)... So, if anyone would like to help the homeschoolfamily collect quarters, I would be willing to reimburse you for your quarter+postage. I'll look up the missing ones tomorrow, but I can tell you the P mint is pretty empty. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreepyCrawler Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 you know, even though the euro is used all over europe, each country mints its own euro coins, so you could also try to collect one from each country. the irish one is way cool. i've even heard that the vatican city (?) has a euro out, too, but it's really rare. i'll bet they did that just so they could be like the american quarters... haha.
