I was going to suggest that you stretch for a higher grade. So glad you did and that it worked out. Can’t wait to see the images. Congratulations!! That happened to me once with one of my Walkers. Paid $2000 extra for a better Coin. Best decision ever!! But yes, finding them is more than half the battle. But, I’ve always been LUCKY that way. 😉🍀🧲
Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

I live on a budget, unfortunately. But I've cut way back on my coin purchases, allowing me to pick expensive coins. This is only the fourth coin I have bought this year.
I have never regretted stretching for a better key coin (and I have regretted not stretching for a key coin). That is especially true for standing Liberty quarters, which (IMO) are beautiful coins in high grades, but become unattractive in well-circulated grades.

The coin arrived today, and I am very, very pleased.
This is a reasonably accurate photo; the coin has less toning than shown, and a great deal more luster.
Very nice!
