I DO like the eye appeal of your quarter . . . . .not sure that its current value would not exceed your certifying/CAC costs . . . a debatable point.
But still . . . a superior example and presentation is off the charts. I know the meaning of your thread . . . but still, that piece is a beautiful example.
Here's one. I would never send in a common date Morgan that I thought was MS-63 for grading. However, I bought it because I disagreed with the grade and sent it to CAC to confirm my thoughts. I won't crack it because it is in one of my favorite holders.

Am I the only one who thinks the quarter has been puttied? Take a look at Washington's face. should CAC buy this coin back sight unseen?
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

I am actually happy sometimes that there are people with more money than brains... or at least knowledge. Unfortunately, it could sour potential future collectors. And, some of them are probably only sending things in in the belief they are going to strike it rich.

How would CAC know that the coin was puttied if it were unseen?
Just some natural semi-opaque (from that photographic angle) toning, No "putty"
this litttle MS65 has the most perfect [album] toning of any of my Roosies. And yeah, I paid for the sticker
Well... In order to join this thread, I will have to send in a coin....I have lots that are not worth slabbing....
Never mind... 
Cheers, RickO
