Bought it raw years ago at a local coin show for $3.00. Had in slabbed last year. I should have spent the extra $25 for attribution but at the time I didn't think it was worth it.

I have about a dozen uncirculated rolls of 64-D quarters. Maybe I should search through them!

<< <i>So what is the current value of MS 1964 D type C reverse quarters in grades of 63, 64, 65 and 66? >>
$300, $450, $850, $1,750.
The prices are good to the right collector.
BTW Harvey, your 65 looks better than mine which has some unsightly hits on the upper cheek.
The Type C Reverse is most notably recognized by the sharp crisp leaves under the arrow clutch. The leaf tip closest to the arrow heads on the Type A reverse, tapers off into the field even on well struck coins. The weaker the strike, the more blending into the field the leaf tip takes. The leaf on the Type A is also round in comparison to the Type C Leaf which appears longer and more tapered. The Type C leaves are sharp and well formed regardless of strike and coin wear.
The leaf tip to the right of the Eagles Tail Feathers, rises above the tail feathers on the Type C but ends below the tail feathers on the Type A reverse.
The tail feathers will have veins on the center if the feathers on the Type C. The better the strike, the more well formed the veins are. Poor lighting, such as on my photo, will mask those veins but the scan of the coin above, clearly shows the feather veins.
Your best method of actually viewing a high grade Type C to observe all the detail, is to check out your 1965 Washington's.
The name is LEE!
Yes, I would if I had them. But the odds are still against you at greater than 25 to 1 for the dozen rolls.
John Hinkle and Bill Edwards examined 280.000 1964 D's in 1966 and found 23 type C's.
