Another Standing Liberty Quarter joins the fold

This just arrived yesterday. The strike isn't much to crow about but the color is very nice in my opinion. It is graded 62, which also means it was fairly inexpensive.

It joins these other 2: (I had a super 1925 that I regret selling)


MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    Nice. They all three seem to match nicely with their subtle, peripheral color splash.

    I like the strike on that T-1...

    Agreed on both above:

    Great color & That Ty 1 is a great strike

    What caused it to be graded 62. Looks like a much higher grade coin. I do the same with my collection. Buy coins that look much higher for the grade than the assigned numerical grade. These coins I buy are probably undergraded by 1 point at least, and look nicer than higher graded coins.

    Absolute beauties, one and all! I LOVE the color on the 1927!

    What is the grade on the 1926D? Nice eye appeal on the coin

    Your new acquisition, the 1927, does look better than a 62.... Perhaps it is the TruView beauty shot...nice coin. Cheers, RickO

    I think the 62 grade is due to a light vertical scratch in the left pedestal.
    @Rubicon the 26-d is a 64+.
    Thanks everyone!

    Looks a little undergraded to me. Especially considering perhaps an added point for the attractive toning. Beautiful coin.

    I'm pretending I see the scratch. The colors are too distracting. :D

    I think quite a few of us would be happy to use the reverse of the '27 as a bi!tch-slap the next time someone describes a drab crescent as a rainbow. :'(
