MORE ON THE LAST STATE QUARTER DESIGNS

Last week an article on the last of the original 50 states
quarter series noted "But the series may get an extra breath
of life. A bill to issue six more coins in 2009, honoring
the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa,
the United States Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana
Islands has been approved by the House of Representatives
and is now awaiting action in the Senate banking committee."

Dave Lange writes: "At the recent Baltimore coin show, Dawn
Burbank of Whitman Publishing, LLC showed me the company's
new folder for the still-pending 2009 "state" quarters. Being
a collector of all coin folders, albums, etc., I of course
bought one for my collection. This folder will become all
the more appealing if the bill fails to pass, though I suspect
that political considerations will prevail and the bill become
law.

"Another interesting Whitman product appearing soon will be
its tributes to the vintage coin boards produced by Whitman's
predecessor company during the 1930s and early 40s. Reproduction
11" x 14" coin boards are set to debut this month for Lincoln
Wheat Cents and Buffalo Nickels. I've know of its plan for some
time, but Whitman did not announce these products until recently.
I haven't seen them yet, but they will make an interesting
addition to my collection and to any future edition of my book
on coin boards."
