Question for you Quarter Experts...pictures posted

I picked up a BU roll of 1972 quarters and most are really gem quality with great strikes and very minor marks. My question is that most of them have some slight hazing/toning across them, will this affect the grading much? Not all over the coins some look almost cameo like with some light yellow toning, but the lustre still comes through. I think most will probably go ms66 with a couple that might make ms67.

I don't think that light hazing will affect grade at all, until you're talking about 68 range and up.

Nice quarters! I can't grade well by the photos, but I'd say you'd have a limit of 66.

It looks fairly typical for a gem of this date, though gems of this date are pretty
tough. Rolls of this date are fairly tough too so most of the ones you see are
mint set rolls. I'd guess that it will go MS-65 because of weakness in LIBERTY.
These are often found with toning, hazing or tarnish. Mint set coins of this date
are easily differentiated by being uniformly good strikes and about 10 to 15%
will have roughness in a crescent near the rim. This is planchet roughness which
wasn't completely obliterated by the strike.
