    Now that’s definitely an inflation guess.

    I had G6 in there, but inflated it.

    G6 or VG08

    Obverse generally weighs more heavily than reverse

    Wait till you see one in a PCGS slab.

    The coin is G6, the holder is FR2. What a mess!

    I'm torn between 4 or 6 but will go with G06 based on the thread title.

    G04 at best

    In my unique opinion the obv. makes g4, the rev. doesn't.
    Unique = I never follow the crowd.

    G4, but since you say inflation it’ll probably be VG10.

    Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.

    3, should be hard to inflate that one.

    Looks about right.

    Given that the wear has run over rims and into the tops of the letters on the reverse, it should be AG-3. The weak "In God we trust" is acceptable for a Good because the motto was in low relief for all of the 1932 quarters. But the reverse just doesn't measure up.

    G06 was generous. It would look better as G04.

  • ShaunBC5ShaunBC5 Posts: 1,807 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I got my guess from Photograde like @jmlanzaf
    I thought it matched the 6 pretty closely and bumped to an 8 due to the title of the thread. Thats a lot of detail to be a 4, even with the light rims.
