Here is what PCGS had to say about dpoole's quarter set!!!!
<< <i>Last year, David Poole won an award for Best Classic Set in the PCGS Set Registry Awards. He started his Washington quarter collection in 2001 and first loaded it in the Registry in July, 2002. As time went by he began to get serious about the collection when he started meeting other collectors who were experts in the field. Today his sets sit in the #1 position. His Basic set has a Set Rating of 66.87 which means that there are only a few coins that would improve the set. His 1934 MS68, 1940 MS68, 1948-S MS68, 1949 MS58, 1949-D MS68, and 1962-D MS67 are the single finest coins graded for the date. The collection has amazing quality and is truly world-class >>
My comment is as follows:
David wow! I cannot believe you actually found that 1949 quarter in MS-58!!!! I can't wait to see it!! Must be one of a kind!!! I will bet you that even wondercoin has never seen one nor has one even in his collection!

I recall telling him that there was NO WAY I would ever make it to that level but wanted to be a part of the All Time Greatest Set, so I sold him 3 coins from out of my set .... AND HE DID IT!
Congratulations David.
Come on now Oreville - that is hitting below the belt considering I sold the coin to Craig, who sold it to David and I miss owning it!
Congrats David!
