I have bought several different quarter folders - trying to find the best one for my grandchildren- this is the VERY BEST ONE- I plan to replace all my previously purchased coin folders with this one. The quarters fit nicely - and there is a little finger area to lift each coin out if you want to look at it or reposition it. I have not been nearly as happy with any other folder. They are either very difficult to put in- the cardboard ones especially -or some quarters fall out of other ones. This one is perfect. It is also very attractive and has a book that includes facts about each state. The magnetic strip on mine doesn't work too well but it doesn't really harm anything- the folder stays together fine. I can't wait to give one to each of my 11 grandchildren! :)

There are a lot of coin books out there. I chose this one for my 8 year old daughter to begin coin collecting b/c it was colorful and it has a book inside to teach her about the different state coins. It holds the coins well. Overall, great product.

I bought this in order to take a set of quarters to a friend in Russia. For this purpose it was good value being relatively compact and the quarters stayed in their slots during the trip.

There was one disappointment however. The one I got was printed before the last year or two was issued, so there are no pictures in the slots of the design of the obverse of thise coins as they had not been chosen yet I suppose.

One caveat, and it applies to all State Quarter holders. The mint has decided to issue an additional year of coins for non-states. For example the DC coin is already out. Others like Puerto Rico will follow I imagine. So if you want a holder that has places for these also, shop carefully. This product did not deceive, it clearly states "50 States", but you might be disappointed if you plan to collect the additional non-states.

This will make a wonderful gift for my niece was is in the elementary school. This book comes with a history, so it will be educational as well.

cons:
- I don't like the way that they stick plastic with the paper. It is not neat. The plastic didn't stick properly. It is not smooth along with the paper, so it can move like a wave. It makes the coins and the state names are not in the right position. It make some parts of state names and years stay behind the coins, thus you cannot see it clearly.
- I don't like the material. It is just a hard paper sticking with plastic.

pros:
- It has a little book inside that explains about each state (but I still don't like its material :(
- Coins fit well with the plastic (but plastic doesn't fit well with the paper :(

This album is a neat way of showing off my collection of the 50 state quarters without having to worry about a coin slipping out. The holders are great and hold the coins very well. The magnetic closure mechanism is nice. And of course, the book with interesting facts about the different states that came with the album is a great source of learning.

The only minor glitch is that all the holders have a picture of the respective quarter except for the last 5 that were released in 2008. I guess I should have waited for a newer edition!

Nonetheless, this is an awesome purchase. Thank you Amazon.

I purchased these for my grandchildren. They are convenient, easy to fill, and the quarters stay in but can be removed easily for inspection. It is the best product I've found for this purpose!

Our family enjoys looking through this book to read about the different states. The quarters are firmly inserted into the book and do not slip out, especially when showing them to friends and family. It's a great way to spark interest in the 50 states. Great puchase!!

I really liked the design of this 50 State Quarter Holder, but unfortunately the quality of the plastic seal was poor. There was a bubble of air that would not allow the quarters to set flat & it made for a poor display.
I have ordered another holder & just hope this one is better.

I purchased five of these books based on reviews of other customers. It is sturdy,well designed, and holds the quarters securely. I like the booklet on the inside cover that describes the history of each state. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Stephanie Rousso
