The photo only shows 28 coin slots. Are there another 28 slots not shown? Is the album holding 28 P and 28 D America the Beautiful Quarters or are there 56 quarters and I need two albums. Very confusing marketing. If there are 56 slots why not a photo showing all slots.

Would be nice if these would hold the P, D, and S Versions. Just My Opinion….

Agree with Josh. Western New York State. Have only gotten 2-3 ATB quarters in change in two years. Of course, yet to see any Territory quarters, either (or 2009 dimes or nickels).

I’d have to agree with Boz in that the ATB quarters are hard to find. Just look at the mintage numbers though, pretty low. I am on the east coast here in New Hampshire and have a keen eye out for these in circulation, but I have only found one ever and it was grand canyon. I made the cashier check for more and there weren’t any. Another thing I have yet to find and search relentlessly in my change for is the 2009 dime.

Disagree with the comment that ATB quarters are readily available in pocket change. Not so in the midwest, not a single one has come through any routine transactions I have had.

Can’t help but wonder if the cancellation of the president dollar series albums is because the mint already knows the program is ending prematurely (see the previous post regarding the glut of coins and the legislation introduced in Congress)?

As more support for this premis, note that on 7-22-11 the mint stopped distribution of presidential dollars thru the direct ship program. While they said on their website it was because of credit card mileage point fraud, there haven’t been any offerings under the revised system yet this week.

The handwriting seems to be on the wall.
