Michigan quarter to debut Jan. 26
By Oralandar Brand-Williams / The Detroit News
DEARBORN - Jan. 26 can't come soon enough for James Marusak.
That's when Michigan's quarter will debut.
“This is a huge deal,” said coin collector Marusak, who manages Central Coin & Stamp Inc. on Ford Road. “I've been getting about 10 calls a day asking when the coin is going to be released.”
The first minting of the Michigan quarter began this week. It is the 26th coin to be released in the U.S. Mint's 50 State Quarters program, which began in 1999.
The U.S. Mint is printing the coins in the order the states were admitted to the union. Michigan was the 26th state, admitted Jan. 26, 1837.
The coin's Jan. 26 release will be marked with a state ceremony attended by Gov. Jennifer Granholm, the director of the U.S. Mint and other dignitaries. But the coin won't be widely available to banks and collectors until the first week of February.
The quarter's design, which features the entire state and the five Great Lakes, has created a lot of excitement, state officials say.
“We are among very few states that show the actual outline of the state and nothing else,” said Sarah Lapshan, the spokeswoman for the Michigan Department of History, Arts and Libraries.

When Jim first began dating Lisa, he wanted to impress her with his Corvette. Instead of going outside through the front door of the house, she led him through the garage and what a surprise!! There sat her father's Corvettes. So much for making an impression! Hmmm -- does this mean that Jim is following in his father-in-law's footsteps?

In May 2000, Lauren and his father participated in the One Lap of America race. Beginning in Grand Haven, MI, the rally/race was to take 6 days/nights through several states with track races at various points along the way. Most of the driving was during nights. Unfortunately, the car broke down on the third day. Lauren and Fred had to rent a trailer and bring the car home to make repairs. They returned to the race when disaster struck the second time. A fire started in the floorboard. Although Lauren was burned on his leg, the burn was not serious - but they were out of the race. There is always next year!
