  • <<Speaking of those clads, has anyone assembled a similar list for them?

    I'd also love even a speculative estimate on original and/or surviving populations of these Type Bs.

    Very useful thread! Thanks, everyone.>>

    There is very little activity on clad B sales. I remember a 1969 D B unc selling for one or two hundred dollars and a circulated 1970 D B for about the same price.

    Based on my experience in the Massachusetts area, I estimate mintages to be:
    1969 D B 1,000,000
    1970 D B 500,000
    1971 D B 80,000
    1972 D B 40,000

    Most of these, I assume, are still circulating, but in lower grades now.

  • Hellgee has a thread on "Clad Type B finds".
    http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&threadid=766625&highlight_key=y

    In Pensylvania between 2006-2009 he went through 700,000 quarters and found
    1969 D B 7
    1970 D B 4
    1971 D B 2
    1972 D B 2

    In Massachusetts 1973-1988 I went through 715,000 quarters and found
    1969 D B 53
    1970 D B 21
    1971 D B 3
    1972 D B 2

    Hellgee's experience would suggest 1971 D B and 1972 D B are much more common than my estimates. His 71's and 72's find were 1/2 his 1970 D B and more than 1/4 of his 1969 D B finds. If my 1969 D B and 1970 D B estimates are right, that would indicate a mintage of about 250,000.

    As to finding about equal numbers of 1971 and 1972 in our 700,000 quarter batches, Remember there were a heck of a lot of circulating quarters added in the gap between our searches - 1989-2005.

    However 7 out of 7 1971 D B's have the same die marker and hence it is a one die coin. 1972 D B's seem equally rare.
    The average quarter reverse die life in 1971 was 170,000. The actual output of a given die could vary quite a bit from that.


    Edit: corrected number of 1971 D B checked for die chip.

    i am starting to put together a set of these and just looking on ebay there seems to be few of these uncirculated gems, just curious anyone buying them raw and sending them in to pcgs? seems some of the ones already slabbed are selling at a higher premium, and yet some of the raws look alot better and cheaper. Wonder how much this coin would cost me to get slabbed at pcgs? http://cgi.ebay.com/1960-Type-B-Reverse-Washington-Quarter-Gem-Uncirculated-/270576265222?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3eff9a2806

    I agree. The PCGS attributed label is worth $, but it costs you $.
    I think the cheapest service fee is $14 plus $24 variety attribution fee plus mailing fees.

    I noticed that one, almost bid, but the reverse was a bit too 'splotchy' for my liking. The obverse was toned 'rainbow', but the reverse didn't impress me, and my guess would have it in a PCGS MS65 holder. '57 is one of those dates that MS65 doesn't support the $55 bid, buyers premium, shipping from TT, then the shipping both ways, grading and attribution fees from our hosts. Had the reverse been toned similarly to the obverse, I would have jumped on at $55-$60, but no more (and eventually would have just sent it to the guys ATS to keep it in it's MS66 holder, with the attribution).
    I'll come up with something.

    I saw it but passed since:

    1. It's in an NGC Slab
    2. The spots on the reverse really bothered me.

    This 1960 Type B sold rather quickly. Did I underprice it?

    Lee, yeah, that is a large enough fee to think twice about slabbing with the error AND variety......but then again, how many have you seen like it? Not to mention, it's the third toughest date, and, quite honestly, could become the toughest.....only 3 more graded than the '62, and 15 more than the '56. You KNOW you're sending that one in for the whole 9 yards! If not, I'll Paypal ya $40 for it so I can! image

    Kidding aside, again, nice pick-up...I'd love to own that!
