    Here’s an “upgrade” to my 1950-D, upgrade in quotes because both coins are the same grade (MS67), but the new one fits much better into my toned set.

    It’s a little bit funky, and it has true “R.O.Y.G.B.I.V.” rainbow color progression on parts of both sides. The TrueView is a touch overexposed but not too far off.





    The old one is an unremarkable 67 that I acquired below greysheet:

    While I patiently wait to find my very own 1934-D, would anyone care to share ones you currently or once owned :)

    These quarters will soon be graded by our host.


    That is great looking coin, looking forward to seeing that grade.

    @Matt04 I think I've shown you this one before, but this is my heavy motto in PCGS 64. It was the very last coin I acquired to complete my full set, so I understand your struggle! Very challenging to find with color.

    @NorCalJack your 34-d is amazing.

    @NorCalJack & @P0CKETCHANGE Absolutely stunning examples Wow! I think another very unique thing about the 34-D is if you find the Small D Variety its the original reverse 1932-D dies that were first re-used in 1934

    This chart shows the three 1950 issues (P/D/S) and the % change in the PCGS guide for the MS67 grade over the past 5 years. I find it odd that the Denver coin sank by 50% while the others are flat or up. Any ideas?

    Wonder what the population in MS67 did across the three? I imagine several coins came out. That was one of the reasons I sold my MS67 set when I did. I am currently working on a MS65 set and having fun doing it. Some coins are about 1/10th of a 67!

    I will be sharing more details on this piece soon. I have been extremely lucky in the past 30 days to have bought, handled & submitted two phenomenal examples that both graded MS68, tied for finest known, both fresh coins.

    This 1935 Washington Quarter Graded by PCGS today:
    This is not by any means a semi key, or scarce date, its actually from what I recall a rather common example in lower unc grades.

    I bought this example for its rather unique qualities. Graded MS65 by Anacs, I knew it was nowhere close to a 65. Crusty & Original, it was freshly graded by a dealer who had bought a dansco album from a collector with this example in it. it was then sent off to anacs, graded then bought by me.

    An obverse & reverse with this insane original skin! I really hope once the trueviews are uploaded that it does a good job showing it. Under the right angles there is this slight rainbow halo on the obverse.

    I suspect this was an ender for an Original Bank Wrapped Roll Based on the obverse toning.

    Wow! Incredible find and story!
