Quarterbacks

Uh, not the football position though. I mean the back of quarters that are worth something (not to say there are not some football players out there worth watching these days!). For our copper anniversary, John bought me the Quarters Collection folder and I have tried to collect them since then (yes, quarters are actually made of copper - good researching John!). I am actually caught up to 2007, but have not got many this year for some reason and yes, I had some help finding the older ones from John's grandma who counts the money at her church in Omaha. I recently got this e-mail that allows you to take a quiz on how well you know the states picture on the back. Obviously, I am an idiot in this department. It is a good day when I can actually remember the few quarters I am missing and to actually look at the backs of them before I spend them again! Anyway, for all of you who also collect them - you'll have to try this quiz out! I am sure you'll do better then this collector!

Frank and I collect the state quarters too. I took the quiz and got an 80%. Not too bad. Honestly, there were some that didn't even look familiar and I just guessed on them or just tried to reason it out with what the picture was. It was fun to learn what the pictures were and the story behind them. What did you get?

Great job guys...I think I got about a 50% or something. I was guessing on most of them and sadly I am a history minor. You'd think some of those historical facts pictured on them would come to mind as I am guessing, but no such luck.
