Is the eagle on a cloud or in a nest? Breathtaking piece.Let's try not to get upset.0

Superb coin no doubt!
But the pics are bad. Coins are not lit from within by white light.
Would love to see a basic photo of it.0 -
Thanks for the New Year surprise TDN. This 1796 appears to me to be a large date/large letter variety. Is this the only one of that variety??
Happy New Year to you too.

<< <i>That's a neat little broken dentil at S7 on the obverse. The toning pattern with the streaks ? (is that from storage ? ) >>
My first thought that those "streaks" were haymarks (tin impurities in the silver/copper alloy) akin to those frequently seen on William IV and Anne coinage, but they wouldn't bother me.

The only thing wrong with that coin is that the eagle's head looks like a turtle. Other than that, I'm good!0

Certainly an amazing coin.....Cheers, RickO0

My friends on this forum, I have a confession. I tried to find this coin on CoinFacts, at least to the proper attribution. Spent a few hours noting the significant deviations. I thought the coin that TDN posted was a dollar, and therein lied the issue. When you come to understand that the coin is a quarter, then the numismatic stars finally start to align. I just wanted to know the grade, which TDN did not reveal in the OP.
In a PM TDN was gracious enough to tell me where he sourced the images and then I was able to finally understand that this was not a counterfeit dollar, it is a MS66 quarter.
Just wondering how many others thought this was a dollar????????

in the i knew it was a quarter at 1st sight crowd here everything in life is but merely on loan to us by our appreciation....lose your appreciation and see0

I assumed it was a dollar.
Just another reason I'm not worthy of being the owner.
