Coin and Paper Money Collecting/state quarters

Advertisement


Question
I have been collecting sets of the state quarters for a year or so now, and I have every denver mint coin about 15 times over. however, i am having the hardest time locating P Mint quarters, as I live clear out in portland oregon. Curious to know if there are folks out there that would trade straight across a set for a set so I can start completing some of the P sets? Also, are there particular state quarters that If I should find them, they are more valuable than others, whether due to high demand, rarity, or possible misprints?

Thanks

Hello Elliott,               

I used to use this site to connect traders to each other with some success.

State quarters trading
Coin World sponsors an online State quarter dollars trading forum at its Web site. This forum allows the trading of State quarter dollars one for one but does not permit commercial sales of the coins.
To use the trading forum, first go to Coin World's Web site at www.coinworld.com. At the left, on the red tab and adjacent to the Coin World logo, you will find a "Coin World Forum" link that, when you click on it, will take you to our online discussions forums home page.
From that page, click on the "Login Now!" link (in blue). That will take you to another page with a "Please Come On In" button (in red); click that to get to the next page.
The next page contains the gateways to Coin World's general discussion forum and State quarter dollars trading forum. Clicking on the trading forum link will take you directly to the forum, which will contain numerous offers to trade State quarter dollars. Be sure to read the trading forum rules (link appears at the top) before proceeding.
Trades can change frequently. As this feature was being written, for example, a trader called "big art" was seeking rolls of Massachusetts quarter dollars, for which he was willing to trade rolls of Denver Mint quarters of other states.
Traders learn to trust each other by trading honestly and fairly.
Coin World's forum is limited to State quarter dollars. Broader trading privileges can be found elsewhere online.
