Talk about well cicrulated - 1936 Washie

I had a coworker show me this quarter today. He got it from his dad who resided in NYC. I thought the overall look of the coin was pretty cool and figured I'd share it with you guys. (photos taken with my iphone)

    Nowdays, it's plastic being pushed across the bar.
    Saddens me.
    Well, maybe it just saddens me that I'm not at a bar......

    It looks nice and has a pretty common wear pattern for this issue. I like it.

    When roll searching in the early 1960's I used to see quarters from the 30's in that shape all the time. Unless they were scarce mintmarks I usually returned or spent them.

    Edited to add: I did find a 1932-D quarter in that shape or slightly worse in 1964. Sold it to a dealer for $9.00, or the equivalent of about $70 today.
