US Quarters
Over the past 8 or 9 years I have been working on getting all of the US quarters with the 50 States. I have 42 of them. Getting a little impatient to finish the set. If anyone happens to have the ''missing" ones I would gladly pay for the quarters and costs of mailing.
States needed: California Colorado Hawaii Idaho Kansas Minnesota New Mexico Texas Silly, I know but hey, we need silly occasionally. Thanks anyone who can help.

Sorry 14+. I just went through a pile of my US change and I guess most of my quarters were the older ones because only two had states on them and they were Washington and Oklahoma.
I will be in the US next week and will check my change and the change of my friend to see if I can get any of the missing ones for you.

Are you looking for any particular year or just the state?
I head up a pop fund at my office and get loads of quarters. I'll keep an eye out for any of the listed states.

Thanks guys and gals! I appreciate it.

Winston - I have some neat coins from through the years. I don't do anything with them but put them away. I keep telling my kids that's their inheritance. The neatest one I think is from China. Someone passed it off as a toonie at work. I think I also have a triangular one but can't remember where it's from without going and looking for it. The other day I got a 25 cent coin from the Cayman Islands. It's cool to see where coins come from. I'll never get to see the places (and that's fine) but I get to see their money.

14+, I'm pretty sure I have extras of all of those if you want them. No need to replenish...Canadian coins don't spend very well here. You want?

I'll ask my mother and my husband. They're always exchanging quarters and Tom has a big cardborad map with spaces for the quarters. I'll show him this list and ask him what he's got. I'm sure he must have something from the list of the ones you need.

Well because of where I work 99% of the guest's we have are American so we deal with 99% American money.
My boss who is from the States is collecting the coins as well and I think he's pretty much done. Both sets, as there is a P mint and D mint. Anyway my point is I am always looking at the change we get at work for him and I will do my best to remember to look for the ones you guys need. I won't have a chance to start looking until the middle of May though. So if anyone still needs help by then please send me an email to remind me and what they need. I enable pm and to be sent an email notification as I don't always get a chance to come here during the summer. So hopefully it will show up in my email inbox.

Oh, that's right--I forgot about the two mints. I don't have the complete P set, just the ones minted in Denver. So except for maybe one or two, they'll all be D coins.

I'm almost certain I have Hawaii, I remember seeing it in Tim Hortons drive through and since it didnt have our traditional canadian Caribou on it, I put it in my purse or ashtray.
I'll check it out tomorrow and let you know if I still have it or if I have since donated it for scrumptious Canadian coffee.

No problem! My drawer will finally open without groaning from the weight! I just have to figure out what's required for shipping and send them on their way.

As long as it's not more than 10,000.00 worth, shouldn't need a formal monetary Customs clearance.
