Collecting United States quarters is a great hobby to pursue because they are so easy to come by since they are often part of the change we receive from merchandise purchases; however, there are things to bear in mind when starting and developing a collection.
The 50 state quarter program came into existence in 1999 as one for each US state was minted beginning with Delaware, the first officially-recognized state, and continuing in the order of statehood entry. This process was completed in 2008.
Considered to be an ideal hobby for children, two options for keeping and organizing coins already collected were a US state quarter boards and state quarter booklets, since in each case a pocket for placement and safe keeping was provided.
