Been looking for one of these forever that was nice. Woke up today and did my usual check legend before the wife and kids know I am up.

Guess it's ex Type Set, too! Didn't know until after.

Very happy!!! Don't have the cert number or have it in hand so it's not in my type set yet.

    So is the Ferrari yours? Forget the coin, I should have taken it out for a morning spin but getting it out of the garage would have awakened the family.

    Thanks guys. These usually come so ugly I jumped on it as soon as I saw it. I missed one years ago that was decent but not too great.

    And yes insider, it is. :smile:

    Wow - very nice.
    This is a coin that is common in VF/XF all day long, but you seldom see in AU/MS.

    Beautiful coin!, Congrats!

    Very nice gem. It's actually the highest pop seated quarter (or essentially so) in MS64 grade. At MS65 and higher it does get tough to find one with eye appeal, decent color, and not dipped.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Why did they put an ugly hippy dude head on a chick sorta body with at least one popeye forearm?

    The eagle reverse is fantastic though.

    I'm pretty sure Aerosmith did a song about the obverse of these.

    Haha, I have to agree with you there. However I want to do a complete type set while working on some other projects and I do like to pick up anything I see as a nice coin. It'll fit in nice to the set!

    That is a very nice coin.... Congratulations... a splendid addition. Cheers, RickO
