@robec, I think used to own that one, did you happen to purchase it from Ebay? your pictures do it way more justice than my attempts ever did.

I take the above comment back, this is the one I sold, has a bit more reverse toning.

Just a touch of edge tone

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
I did get it on eBay. It isn't the one you posted, but in looking at your sig line you were the seller.
Here are your photos followed by the TrueView. It crossed at the same grade.

From same 2005-S Silver Proof set. Some were toned more than others.
I guess I was confusing my own proof 1962 Washington's, that was one pretty quarter!

Shameless addition of one I'm selling. Thread in BST or just send me a PM.
That's easy
Oldie but a goodie
Very nice!!!!
Whoa!
100% Positive BST transactions
A very weakly struck Washie, this common in this series?
Hmmmm.... As Lt. Joe Kenda would say..."My, my, my....."
Cheers, RickO
WOWSERS @TomB. That's a Lovely grouping!!!
Some other nice looking Washies posted by some other people.
How about one a decade of the silver?...
U.S. Type Set
That is gorgeous luster on that 1952-S, stman! In my experience, those early 1950s San Francisco WQs had the best, on average, luster in the entire silver run.

Thanks TomB. Eye appeal sold me on that one. Very nice coins all.
I don't want to drag on any deception here so I will note that the Capital Plastics shot is filled with business strike examples of coins that are currently housed in PCGS holders and that the images posted in this thread are composite images made by taking individual images of each coin and then cropping them onto the holder. I thought folks might recognize some of the individual coins from previous posts.
