The Best Birthday Present Ever

My brother just gave me my b-day present and I'll have to say it's the best I've gotten so far. It is a quarter and he gave it practically a day late, but this quarter is no ordinary quarter. It's the quarter I would have payed DOLLARS for. It's the State Quarter Hawaii, it's the one and only quarter I still needed, It's the final installment in my State Quarter Collection!! Let's just say I am filled with joy because my collection is finally complete, and just in the nick of time too. Thank you very much Gilmore. You are so awesome, for the moment! Anyone else collect these?

Here are pictures of my COMPLETE collection!

It looks great, you brother is so awesome! I can tell how happy you are from your tone of this post. My cousin used to collect these too but then his house was broken into and the thief just couldn't leave his collection behind T___T

Happy birthday Nadine<3

I collect them too! Found my last quarter just a few weeks ago! Every time I see my grandpa he would give me a few that I didn't have. I'm sort of sad it's over now :( When they first started releasing them 8 years ago it seemed like it would take forever but it actually went by really fast!

Happy Birthday!

That is so sweet! I love thoughtful gifts like that.

Oooh, how fun! My grandpa used to always send me quarters....I love how they're all different. What a thoughtful gift!

That was really sweet of your brother to give you that...you two must really be close for him to think of you in that sense, especially giving you such a gift. Kuddos to him...

That's great! I collect state quarters too! But I'm not nearly so organized about it as you are.

Happy Birthday!!!

Thao- Well how rude. I hope that thief trips and falls. lol

Alea- Congrats on completing your set too.

Shalonda- Me too, I always say it's the thought that counts.

Bookworm- That's cool. Did you collect them also?

Hippo- I wish. hehe

Anonymous- you sure are.. lol

Paradox- I found the book thingy at a flea market years ago. If not for that, they'd be in a piggy bank.
