Quarters from Other Places


"Inaugural Game Safeco Field - July 15, 1999" My friend Vard was there! She sent me this quarter along with a couple of pennies from Safeco. It came on an imprinted card that says it's #203 of 500. Thanks Vard!


  • "Boston All Star Game '99" Sandy Marxen sent this one to me, she went to the All Star and got a bunch of sets for collectors on the Elongated Coin Mailing list. It came on a card a little fancier than the Safeco coin, a folding one with Fenway Park facts and places to get autographs. Mine is #418 of 1999. Thanks Sandy!


  • Apparently because Sandy bought so many All Star sets the guys who made them, also gave her a bunch of "Tropicana Field Inaugural Season 1998" quarters too, and she sent this one (#1298 of 1998) to me! I think there's a surplus of Devil Ray commemorative stuff out in the world right now, lately at the Giants' games, they've been using Devil Ray imprinted Baseballs in batting practice, I know because I caught one a few weeks ago.
