Title: State Quarters
Post by: Rerun on November 29, 2006, 03:15:49 AM

Does anyone here collect the State Quarters?  I've been doing it for 6 years now. 

What do you think of your state quarter?

Michigan's is even more boring than Maine's - we just have the outline of the state and the lakes.  All the cool stuff they could have put on it, and they choose a map?

I don't like the California one.  I voted for the one that had a film strip and in each frame was a different picture.  So the film strip represented the "movie industry" and then the frames had the gold miners, the Golden Gate Bridge and Scott Peterson (no just kidding) I think it had a bottle of wine........

Anyway we get John Muir (Who know one even knows) the golden eagle, and Yosemite Valley??  WTF

Da plane, da plane, boss!  But I guess it's better than a pack of cigarettes or a freakin basketball :-)

I loved the old one-room school house, attended 2 of them!  I also enjoy Grant Wood's paintings, so I guess they did an okay job of choosing as far as I am concerned.

Yes, I liked Iowa's.  I also liked Kentucky and Tennessee's.
