| Like many Americans with children, we got started collecting State Quarters when their grandparents
sent a cardboard book into which you hammer the quarters into the holes. My children were always
excited to get the coins in the mail from my parents. I also was excited that they were interested in where they were to
be placed on the map, because they did not know where each state was located in relation to our home state.
This is when I realized the teaching power of the U.S. Mint program. |

| However, the cardboard books never got treated very well, stored on the floor or in the closet and as time went
on their appearance kept degrading. This is when it occurred to me that it would be nice to have a piece of art to
display the collection. |

| Now we have made available, through a breakthrough process, a real wood piece of art that the
coins can be placed in and with which you can share your American pride and educate in U.S. history and geography.
