New Washington quarter, I am really beginning to love this series. Love the 1932 to 1964 sets.

    Thinking about it, total new area for me.

    Nice example, great toning. If these are the kind of pieces you like we may find ourselves in competition!

    That's a beautiful coin!

    I love this series, as well, but it can be tough to find and acquire superb pieces.

    Don't forget some of the huge doubled dies to be found in this series.

    Circulation strike silver Washington quarters are great to collect.

    So are the clads from 1965 to 1998.

    Then you also have proof silver Washingtons from 1936 to 1964. They offer a wide variety of looks including toned proofs and Cameo proofs.

    I think the obverse is very attractive. The reverse? Not so much. Too crowded IMHO.

    Nice coin and the '32 to '64 is a great series....Plus they are silver. In MS, quite achievable... PR would be a bit more demanding.... Cheers, RickO

    That's a nice '47S. It looks like a mint set coin !

    Its a great set to collect, but unfortunately, they don't all look like that. Great example! Its a long series to collect, especially if you add the clad and proof issues.

    It's funny you should mention the Washington Quarter. My recent acquisition was this eye candy George that kept calling my name! Lol Washingtons are so much fun to go through. For me, mainly because of all the variety aspect, Like mentioned above.

    This has always been my favorite. Started collecting late date silver bu’s as a kid. Couldn’t afford anything bigger in that condition. Still love them best.
