Well 2 weeks ago my package of 2 coins disappeared at the newport beach PO, OTHER Packages are also missing. Since our host and the PO don't care to even take the time to call back I figure lets do a GUESS the grade. No Picture of the 2nd coin and this next week I would have received my grades if the packages were not stolen. So this coin is the fourth example to be found 1 MS64 1 MS62 and 1 xf45, what do you think mine would have been? The misplaced d is so much more obvious than even the coin facts picture, to me she was a beauty...Also as the postal employee said please keep an eye out for this coin on ebay................Enjoy

<< <i>Please excuse us mere mortals but what makes this coin rare? >>
1957 D misplaced D Look to the left of the original mintmark and in between the vines. See the D? Kinda just jumps out . I was thinking maybe a 63 and asked the dealer if a bath was ok but he said leave it original so there is slight toning. Since there is only 3 others graded I consider this one rare. Enjoy

Sorry to hear the quarter came up missing. my guess it could still show up at PCGS in the mail.
I don't know yet how rare the Misplaced-D is yet, since the Cherry Pickers guide just entered it this year.
I own the MS-64 and I would guess yours would grade MS-64.
The MS-62 sold for $500.00 on Ebay. But coinfacts and the price guide didn't enter it as being sold for that amount.
I hope yours shows up.
And sorry to hear about the lost package to pcgs... I have a submission waiting to ship to them but I'm scared now after hearing all the horror stories lately. Probably best to wait after the holidays.
As noted by a couple of folks, it is hard for a non-informed person to see what makes this coin special. Seeing an obsolete coin (not just silver but a design no longer used) or a coin already sent in in a holder, a thief would have a better idea of what they have.
If they open a package and see a 1957-D quarter, even if they realize it is silver, it may be spent or treated as "normal" 90% and disappear that way
Because of that, I hope the package(s) that were lost are honestly just misplaced as a group/bundle or, if they were stolen, I hope they catch the thief before they get to the packages to spend/sell.
Good lucky Tommy, and I would agree with the MS64 grade potential (63 all day, 64 on a good day) as the larger pics make any "ding" look much bigger. Also, what is going on between the 9 and 5 in the date? Toning? Planchet flaw?
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

I hope Tom gets to experience the "found feeling".
I have some crossovers I would like to do before the "NEW" 1 % fee!
But I don't trust the Post Office right now and the next big show (FUN) will be too late to avoid fee!
PEOPLE WHO DO THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN OUT AND SHOT!!!!

That's typically not the case with PCGS.
Have you considered calling them back??
Sometimes being proactive will get you the desired result.....good luck!
<< <i>Why do you keep taking slight jabs at our host? What do they need to call you back about? It sucks your coins are missing, but it has nothing to do with PCGS. There is risk everytime you put anything in the mail. You can mitigate that risk with insurance or registered, but you can't remove it completely. You could've hopped on a plane and delivered it to PCGS if you wanted to remove the risk of the P.O. The blame needs to be put on the thief that stole them and the P.O. for employing him/her. >>
And all futher submissions will be done at shows, also a company providing a service where the customer has to send them something and packages go missing should be worried and may have more pull with actually getting the PO to look into it. I know are host has no responsibilty in my coins being stolen, I do however feel to be proactive and make a list of the coins missing would be a good thing. I have already called 10 shops in anaheim and made them aware to keep there eyes out. In the end were all responsible for our actions. This was my mistake and trust me it will not happen again. Enjoy
