COINS

Q07_large.jpg

I have enjoyed collecting the State Quarters. There is only two years left in the program. The mint has decided to start a new program using the Dollar coin.

The first coin comes out next month and is pictured above. I bought my albums to start my collection they came in the mail yesterday.

The above picture is of what will be engraved on the edge of the coin. It is also described below.

These coins will feature larger, more dramatic artwork, as well as edge-incused inscriptions of the year of minting or issuance, "E Pluribus Unum," "In God We Trust" and the mint mark.

All four coins for 2007 are pictured above.

Are you going to collect them? Post your answers in comments please.

I would if I lived there :)
I have the 37-odd quarters that had been released up until I went there in 2004. Another blogger has promised to collect the rest of them for me :)
