Display Your U.S. QUARTER COLLECTION in this Beautiful Work of Art!

Purchase this Handmade, All Wood, US Quarter Map and elegantly display your collection for years to come!

Each state is carefully and painstakingly cut from an assortment of exotic and domestic hardwoods. The exotic hardwoods include Purpleheart, Bloodwood, Wenge, Yellowheart, Mahogany and Zebrawood. They originate primarily from Latin America and Africa. Domestic hardwoods used are Walnut and Maple. The wood is planed and sanded smooth. No stains, paints, or dyes are used. All the colors you see in the map are natural to the woods that were used. The entire project is sealed with lacquer to preserve the natural beauty of the wood.

A hole is drilled in each state the size of a quarter. There are 8 East Coast states that are not large enough to hold a quarter. Along the right side of the map are 8 small squares with holes for quarters corresponding to these smaller states. The squares are made from the same wood as their corresponding state. In addition, there are strips made from Poplar around the outside of the map with 50 holes drilled to hold one complete set of quarters. This enables the collector to display quarters from both the Philadelphia mint and the Denver mint.

The entire map is framed in Walnut. The top of the frame is attached to a piece of acrylic, which covers the map, keeping the quarters clean and free from dust. To remove the acrylic to add new quarters, simply raise the top frame and attached acrylic. It easily slides up and out of the rest of the frame. Quarters can be mounted using hot glue, sticky tac, or double-sided tape. When finished mounting the quarters, simply slide the acrylic back in, and the top frame fits neatly in place. The map has hanging wire attached to the back, so you can hang it anywhere in your home or office.

This is truly an elegant and beautiful way to display your quarter collection for years to come.
