Customer Reviews

I HATE this thing!
This album is extremely attractive and informative and has storage space for a complete set of 100 quarters (both P and D mint marks for each state). Unfortunately, it's a nightmare to use.

You'd think the U.S. mint would know what size their own coins are and be able to make an album they would actually fit in, wouldn't you? Well, guess again! It's just about bloody impossible to get quarters all the way into these slots so that they're firmly lodged and don't fall right back out again. I have only found two ways to accomplish this: 1) pound on the coins with a heavy object (obviously a disaster for preserving either them OR the album in good condition) or 2) painstakingly shave away a little bit of the cardboard around the edge of each slot (extremely tedious and time-consuming, as well as very hard to do without puncturing the flimsily thin backing material).

I am now in the process of shopping for an album that doesn't require me to risk damaging my quarters in order to get them into it. When I get one, this thing will go straight into the recycling bin. I couldn't bring myself to inflict it on some other unsuspecting person.

P.S. No offense to Burton W. Ostrower, but I think he MUST have been reviewing a different album. Mine does not have a "top plastic cover," and the coins are NOT viewable from both sides as he said. (I wish!) I would report the inaccuracy to Amazon if I knew how, because I hate to see people be misled. But the report form only allows reporting of "inappropriate" material, and there's no place to write comments there.

Excellent product by the US Mint
This folder is the best product for storing state quarters that I have seen. Although it has little visual aid (which would only matter for children), this is definately the one to get.
Specs:
~4 fold-out pages
~100 holes (50 for Philadelphia & 50 for Denver)
~Each page has 25 holes (5 across and 5 down)
~Contains info on each state and its quarter's release date

Overall, it is a nice-looking, inexpensive, and informational folder for storing your coins.

Quarter Folder
I am very pleased with The Official U.S. Mint 50 State Quarters: Complete 100 Hole Collector's Folder, Complete Collection 1999-2008. I originaly bought another set and the quarters were very difficult to get in and then they would fall out. I have not had any problems with the quarters falling out of this one and I like how it seperates the P and D mint mark quarters
