1962-D Washington Quarter PCGS MS66 In Dallas Signature Auction

I was seriously going after this one until the reserves kicked in today. The next bid on this one link would meet the reserve which is set at $862.50 with the juice! I would definitely have to see this one in person before even considering placing a bid. Looks like a beautiful speciman for this date, can't beat the beautiful toning, and I'd love to add it to my set but for that price I'm afraid I may have to pass. If I did bid, it would be out of pure love for the coin because it would be tough to recoup your cost when it came time to sell, unless of course it upgraded. Of course I have a coin like this in my set, a 54d in MS66. Paid a small fortune for it but I loved the look and had to have it. It's still one of my favorite dates in the set and I still enjoy taking it out and looking at it from time to time. Hmmmm... Any of you other Washington collectors have an opinion?

    Buy it!!!!! You want it and the price ain't really "stupid"...I can tell you from experience, you'll kick yourself later if you pass....AND...you won't ever find a prettier coin for that date!!!image

    If you want this coin with character, take a look at the one I have in the Dallas Bullet Auction, Lot 968. Doesn't have the same depth of toning but has an added dimension that you don't see very much of. Make sure you look at the blown up version. And there is no reserve! Dave
  • Hey Dave, nice coin but the one I have in my set at this time has a little character too. Should get some new images of it as the pics were probably taken when I first got my camera but you get the general idea.

  • I actually prefer your coin to the one in the Signature Auction. But I don't see the extra Mint Mark on yoursimage Dave
