Washington — The United States Mint today announced that the 2001–dated 50 State Quarters Greetings from America Portfolios and State Card Sets are now available.
The 50 State Quarters Greetings from America Portfolio — available for $29.99 each — consists of five circulating commemorative quarter–dollar coins and five corresponding state stamps in a portfolio. Each portfolio has a matching slipcase that includes a Certificate of Authenticity signed by United States Mint Director Henrietta Holsman Fore and United States Postmaster General Jack Potter. The portfolio includes the quarter–dollar coins honoring New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Vermont and Kentucky.
Baseball card–sized, 2001–dated 50 State Quarters Greetings from America State Card Sets are also available. The State Cards consist of one circulating quarter–dollar coin released in 2001 and the corresponding state stamp. They can be purchased in a set that includes all five from each year of the 50 State Quarters Program for $27.99.
The 1999, 2000, and 2002 Portfolios and State Card Sets went on sale earlier this year. All are available online at the United States Mint website — www.usmint.gov, at 1–800–USA–MINT, and on the United States Postal Service website at www.usps.com/shop, or 1–800–STAMP–24. The products for the remainder of the program — 2003 through 2008 — will be released at the end of each year.
The 50 State Quarters Greetings from America Portfolios and State Card Sets are also available through the United States Mint’s Subscription Program, which ensures coin collectors will never miss a United States Mint product offering for selected products.
