Hackensack, NJ, … Quickly responding to customer inquiries from across the United States, Lighthouse Publications, Inc. has become the first manufacturer to announce production of a coin album page specifically created for the additional six coins following the United States Mint’s 50 State Quarters® Program. The extension of the program was signed into law by President George W. Bush late last year, and the new coins, to be issued in 2009, will feature the District of Columbia and five U.S. Territories.

The Lighthouse album page is designed to fit the company’s popular Statehood Quarter Album. Available in mid-May, the page will feature two slots per coin – one each for the Philadelphia and Denver mints – and will be embossed with the names and 2009 issue year of the quarters honoring the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the United States Virgin Islands and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.

Lighthouse Publications President and CEO Eric Werner said, “Immediately after the legislation was signed, we received many inquiries from collectors asking for this additional page. I am proud that Lighthouse was able to respond as quickly as it did, and delighted to be the first manufacturer to announce these pages to our market.”

The cost of each page is $4.50, and starting mid-May can be purchased through fine supply dealers or directly from Lighthouse Publications, www.lighthouse.us or 888-269-1513.
