According to the numbers calculated by the United States Mint, thousands of people have started collecting the full set of their United States Quarters sets. There are many types of coin collectors, including children, casual collectors, and serious collectors.
Children might collect them, placing each state's quarter into its proper place in their state quarter collection book. Families might even share a collection, talking about each state's history as they browse thru their coin book.
Even serious coin collectors might expect to find a few rare quarters within the thousands that were distributed within the limited time frame from 1999 to 2008. For example, a few coins from Kansas were labeled as "In God We Rust" instead of "In God We Trust". In 2005 some Minnesota quarters were printed with extra trees. The Wisconsin quarters are some topic of debate between collectors as there are many with no leaf, some with the leaf pointing upwards, and some with the leaf pointing downwards.
Full collections of all quarters from the Denver mint are more valuable than a set that contains mixed quarters, as are full sets where each state's quarter has been made in the Philadelphia mint. Some might ignore collecting the state quarters due to the large quantity that have been made. Seeing the collection books that cater to children might also deter a serious coin collector.
Seeing that those coins can also be produced with rare errors, however, which make them more valuable, should help convince anyone that they can be more than just a tool for teaching children about our state history. They can also become very valuable and if you already have a full set, you might want to take a better look at them incase you have one that is of rare quality.

Love on a Dime $9.92 "In an age of elegance and excess, Lilly Westbrook longs for a love both true and eternal." Newport, Rhode Island, 1899, is a place of shimmering waves, sleek yachts, and opulent mansions that serve as summer cottages for the rich and famous. Home of railroad magnates and banking tycoons-dashing young men and the women who aspire to marry them. But it's not the place for lady novelists. Especially not those who pen disreputable dime novels. This poses a problem for Lilly Westbrook, because that's exactly what she does. No one in Lilly's social set knows she pens fiction under the "nom de plume" Fannie Cole. Not her family or the wealthy young man about to propose to her. And especially not Jackson Grail, the long-lost beau who just bought her publishing company-and who stirs her heart more than she cares to admit. But Lilly must put aside her feelings and follow the path that will maintain her family's social stature and provide the financial security everyone is depending on. Now Lilly faces a double dilemma. Can she continue to protect her secret identity? And will she have the courage to choose the man who will risk it all just to win her heart? |

Nickel and Dime $3.95 I'm outta here I got a future crows Roberto Silva when he is down-sized out of his job as a security guard at a bank in Oakland. But Roberto's future isn't the one he was looking forward to. This is the 1990s, and upward mobility in the city requires resources that Roberto is short of. Before he knows it, he is living in an abandoned quonset hut and then on the street, where he crosses paths with poet Silver Mendez, a survivor of the 1960s whose luck has run out, and Gus Hernandez, a compadre from his days at the bank. The ups and downs of the lives of men who are always looking for a way to earn a cup of coffee with plenty of sugar and cream, their desperate ingenuity, their hunger, their dauntless optimism have never been brought to life as vividly as in this sweet, sad, funny trio of interlocking stories by one of America's most original writers. An utterly distinct literary experience. No one writes like Gary Soto. Rather than falling into the trap of politicizing his subjectsblaming Anglos, blaming the church, blaming anyone at allhe simply presents the lives of these three men with emphasis on the minute details, the micro-decisions, the often-perverse impulses that actually comprise so much of human existence. By doing so, he achieves universality."Gerald Haslam |

Where a Nickel Costs a Dime $15.93 Where a Nickel Costs a Dime captures the hip-hop rhythms and in-your-face intensity of the Nuyorican Poets Cafe, a downtown Manhattan club where the hottest young poets are finding their fame. Willie Perdomo's poems, in the tradition of Amiri Baraka, Langston Hughes, and Ntozake Shange, meet at the intersection of the street and the academy. The world in these piercing and heartbreaking poems is Spanish Harlem, "where night turns to day without sleep," where "Puerto Rico stays on our minds when the fresh breeze of cafe con leche y pan con mantequilla comes through half-opened windows and under our doors," where "babies fall asleep to the bark of a German shepherd," where "Independence Day is celebrated everyday," where "the police come into your house without knocking. They throw us off rooftops and say we slipped. They shoot my father and say he was crazy. They put a bullet in my head and say they found me that way." Blending images of street life, drugs, and AIDS against hope and determination, Willie Perdomo is a cutting-edge bard who speaks to the soul of his generation. |

Dime-Store Alchemy: The Art of Joseph Cornell $19.47 In "Dime-Store Alchemy," poet Charles Simic re?ects on the life and work of Joseph Cornell, the maverick surrealist who is one of America's great artists. Simic's spare prose is as enchanting and luminous as the mysterious boxes of found objects for which Cornell is justly renowned. In a work that is in various degrees biography, criticism, and sheer poetry, Simic tells the story of Cornell's life and illuminates the hermetic mysteries of his extraordinary boxes-objects in which private obsessions were alchemically transformed into enduring works of art. Simic sees Cornell's work as exemplifying a distinctively American aesthetic, open to the world, improvisatory, at once homemade and universal, modest and teasing and profound. Full of unexpected riches, "Dime-Store Alchemy" is both an entrancing meditation on the nature of art and a perfect introduction to a major American artist by one of his peers-a book that can be perused at length or dipped into at leisure again and again. |

Dime Novel Desperadoes: The Notorious Maxwell Brothers $30.04 A thrilling true crime narrative and groundbreaking historical account, "Dime Novel Desperadoes" recovers the long-forgotten story of Ed and Lon Maxwell, the outlaw brothers from Illinois who once rivaled Jesse and Frank James in national notoriety. Growing up hard as the sons of a struggling tenant farmer, the Maxwell brothers started their lawbreaking as robbers and horse thieves in the 1870s, embarking on a life of crime that quickly captured the public eye. Already made famous locally by newspapers that wanted to dramatize crimes and danger for an eager reading audience, the brothers achieved national prominence in 1881 when they shot and killed Charles and Milton Coleman, Wisconsin lawmen who were trying to apprehend them. Public outrage sparked the largest manhunt for outlaws in American history, involving some twenty posses who pursued the desperadoes in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, and Nebraska. Some of the pursuers were intent on a lynching, but the outlaws escaped against incredible odds. When a mob finally succeeded in killing Ed, in broad daylight on a courthouse lawn, that event generated widespread commentary on law and order. Nevertheless, the daring desperadoes were eventually portrayed as heroes in sensationalistic dime novels. A stunning saga of robbery and horse stealing, gunfights and manhunts, murder and mob violence, "Dime Novel Desperadoes" also delves into the cultural and psychological factors that produced lawbreakers and created a crime wave in the post-Civil War era. By pointing to social inequities, media distortions, and justice system failures, John E. Hallwas reveals the complicity of nineteenth-century culture in the creation of violent criminals. Further, by featuring astute, thought-provoking analysis of the lawbreaker's mindset, this book explores the issue at the heart of humanity's quest for justice: the perpetrator's responsibility for his criminal acts. Every overview and encyclopedia of American outlaws will need to be revised, and the fabled "Wild West" will have to be extended east of the Mississippi River, in response to this riveting chronicle of major American desperadoes who once thrilled the nation but have since escaped historical attention for well over a century. With more than forty illustrations and several maps that bring to life the exciting world of the Maxwell brothers, "Dime Novel Desperadoes" is a new classic in the annals of American outlawry. |

Dime's Worth of Difference: Beyond the Lesser of Two Evils $3.95 You hear the drumbeats every day: Anybody But Bush, Anybody But Bush. The rampage of the President and his gang of neo-cons and corporadoes is presented by many liberal powerbrokers as a uniquely evil experience in the history of the American republic. Bush is cast as Hitler, and it becomes a moral imperative for progressives to rally behind any Democrat, because in comparison to an American Hitler, all challengers must be benign. Right?-Wrong. "Dime's Worth of Difference" shatters these myths once and for all. A must-read in this election year, it's the new collection edited by Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair, editors of the hugely popular radical website CounterPunch.org and the investigative newsletter "CounterPunch." From judicial nominees to the environmental pillage, economic policy to health care, military aggression to civil liberties, the Democrats and Republicans have acted as a two-headed beast, pursuing the same policies, often underwritten by the same financial sponsors. Both parties insist that there are real differences that divide them. But after 12 years of Clinton/Bush, those differences are harder than ever to detect. Only the rhetoric, backed by scare tactics, remains. In "Dime's Worth of Difference," Cockburn and St. Clair, and a team of "CounterPunch" writers, blow away the rhetorical smog that has polluted our politics for the last few decades. "Dime's Worth of Difference" shows, for all who dare look, that the fake choice of the lesser of two evils still leaves you with evil. It doesn't matter which door you chose. This timely book calls on progressives to begin a new movement outside the death-embrace of the Democratic Party. Nationally syndicated journalists Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair have co-authored numerous best--sellers, including "Whiteout: The CIA," "Drugs and The Press," "Washington Babylon" and "Al Gore: A User's Manual." |

The Prairie Bride; Or, the Squatter's Triumph: A Reprint of the Classic Beadle Dime Novel $5.39 A fight breaks out over a claim in this action-filled homesteading story. The hardships of covered wagon life, the danger of the prairie fire, and the romance of the young bride's new home made this a best-seller in 1869. One of the things that made dime novels so popular was the lurid cover art. These scandalous imaged caught the attention of readers and, indeed, the ellicit nature of the stories was most appealing. Publishers capitalized on the interests of young female readers, especially, bringing tales of strong, willful heroines to life between the cheap paper covers of these books. |
