Anything to look for in 1964 proof quarters?

I pulled some rolls out of the melt bucket. Seemed like a waste to let them go that route.
My early edition of Cherry Pickers does not list anything and I do not have a book specifically on washington quarters

    Wexler & Flynns' "The Best of the Washington Quarter Doubled Die Varieties" lists one doubled die obverse for proof 1964's. The Description is "Doubling shows as a strong spread towards the center on IN GOD WE TRUST, the date, designers' initials, lower Q, and the L of LIBERTY."

    "Die Markers: Obverse: Die scratch on left side of horizontal crossbar of 4. Reverse: Die scratch lower right R of QUARTER east-south-east to rim."

    "Values: PR60 35, PR63 50, PR65 76"

    Looking at the photos, it is a nice ddo, but not something I would spend moon money on.

    Good luck - I hope that helped.

    Sad isn't it? Melting proof coins.

    Seems the BST would be a better venue. Cheers, RickO
