Undergraded?? Washington Quarter Older Holdered coins

Earlier today I decided to head to some coin shops. I was in search of some great looking Quarters!! After searching through a box full of graded quarters I stumbled upon these three pieces. The 1937 caught my eye because it seemed to be better than a 64! I plan on submitting a bunch of my collection coins to CAC soon, and I feel like all three have a good shot at stickering. And for the 37, potentially a gold one! Let me know what you guys think!

I think all three look fine and would most likely receive CAC stickers. The 1937 does look better than many of its grade, but I'm not sold from the images that it would deserve a gold sticker. However, I'm not the person you have to worry about! Good luck.

Here's some videos of each coin. I agree in regards to images.

Out of the three I would say the 49 then 37 are my two favorite. The 42-D has striking luster & clear fields thats really incredible! But the marks on the bust are rough.
Nice quarters and good luck with you CAC submission.

I'm not convinced that you should send them in ,at least from a financial standpoint. Maybe a gold cac on the 49 makes sense but definitely not the 37.
49 seems to be a good coin at its grade, this would sticker green. The 37 for being a MS64 has clear fields, luster and minimal hits for it being such a low grade. You don't see this often at all in 64.
A more accurate one for its grade:
I think if you keep adding images to the thread without labeling them as to "this is an example of what I think a typical 64 is..." or "this is a low-end 64..." or at least "these are not the coin in question..." then you are inviting folks to get confused as to which coin you are writing about.
As for your 1937 in the OP, I think it strong for the grade, but it does have numerous nicks on the portrait along with a whack or two on the eagle. Luster and eye appeal are going to be important for this coin.
