State Quarters

State Quarters have become one of the hottest collectible items to come along in recent years as millions of Americans continue to hoard them as each new series is released. Further interest has been sparked by the discovery of several State Quarter coins with errors of one kind or another in their production or design and collectors continue to be on the lookout for new errors.

The 50 State Quarters Program is a 10 year project administered by the U.S. Mint with the objective of issuing quarters on a periodic basis commemorating each of the 50 states comprising the Union. The program commenced in 1999 and will conclude in 2008. The new quarters constitute legal tender and may be used in commercial transactions.

From 1999 to 2008, the United States Mint will issue a new state quarter approximately every 10 weeks. Each quarter's reverse will celebrate one of the 50 states with a design honoring its unique history, traditions, and symbols.
