2009 Is Drawing To A Close

Silver Proof Quarters commemorating Washington D.C. and U.S. territories: Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana Islands
After the 50 states quarter collection comes the D.C. and territories collection.  The Washington D.C. quarter has Duke Ellington on the reverse.  That will be a winning trivia question.

This set is probably going to be hard to find in a few years.  If nothing else it will be valuable to students wanting to learn the names of U.S. territories: Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana Islands.  I must admit even I forgot about the Northern Mariana Islands.
