2003 marks the halfway
point of the U.S. Mint's Commemorative Quarter Program. Every
year, five states are featured on the flip side of newly issued
quarters. By year-end, 25 of the 50 states will be represented.
Have you been saving your
pocket change? The Googolplex Quarter Keeper is a terrific way
to make sure your commemorative collection is complete. Building

The hardest part may be
finding all of the quarters issued to date, especially some of
the earlier coins in the series. Don't give up! Even if you
were just a baby back in 1999, there's still a good chance some
of the early issues are in circulation.
