I'm having growing pains with my Cannon A520 so I'm back to using a scanner and having problems with reverse...image

    Looks like a fairly nice coin from what I can see... What would you grade this tough date?

    ...that's one reason I was really wanting to get a decent pic posted...I kinda suck at grading Washington quarters at this level. I'd take a stab and say at least MS63.... maybe 64.

    There looks to be some contact marks in the field in front of Georges' face...so probably not 64.

    looks like a nice coin for a tough date, hard to tell wear on scan though. bruceswar, i love your 55d it is dripping with luster.

    No, it ain't. It is from a BU roll. He won it in a recent giveaway of mine. His scan did not capture the luster. The coin has to be at least 63, if not 64.

    So is Leo's coin. Bright white and lustrous. At least as nice as the one in BW's pic, if not better, luster-wise. It was a random pick out of two rolls I got. They are all pretty nice looking. I'd say I have several MS64 coins in the batch and maybe, just maybe, one or two 65s.
