    Congrats on 500, you're officially a forum veteran! This isn't my toned quarter, though it has always been my favorite to look at. Taken from WingedLiberty's "Color of Money" collection, at colorofmoneycollection.com:
    image
    The toning on it is simply complete, with very few "white spots" on the obverse.

    Edited to add: thanks for the opportunity!

    Hey Barry Congrats on your 500th Post and thats a great giveaway and hopefully can start another young person into putting together a Set Of These. I think its a great starter set for Y/n's as some of these coins can still be found in the Raw, and its a Nice Short Set. No Need to Enter me but I did want to show off my set that many on here helped me Complete. Enjoy Tom image Just realized this picture was taken before Dimtorts (David) gave me a raw 1964 type B that finished the set in MS65

    This is my favorite, though I didn't do a very good job of capturing the color on it.

    Congrats! Here is my favorite today. Freshly pulled out of circulation, by the hands of my local Subway Sandwich Artist from about an hour or two ago image

    I only collect Washington Quarters and this is the coin that got me collecting DCAM proofs. The coin looks way better in hand than the photo I took. It is a PR68UCAM in NGC holder.

    I just resumed collecting Quarters a couple of months ago and recently heard about Type B reverses. I found a 1959 Type B reverse in my current collection, so I am starting to look for them and would like to collect all of them. Getting one from you would be a thrill for me. Thanks for the consideration.

    Is that a gold CAC?

    If so, congrats

    Just to clarify that this coin, while quite spectacular, is not owned by me nor has ever been owned by me although I would love the opportunity. Yes, Gold CAC, 66 star.

    edit: was expecting at least MS65, and this was a long time ago, before the NGC star.

    This one is SMS, raw and au naturale! Pictures aren't that great, quick shots and slightly out of focus, but I was just going for the color.
