Please tell me what grade you would assign this 2004-P Texas Statehood Quarter and please vote in the attached poll. As always, comments welcome!
I went with '64. There's some slight chatter on the obverse rim above Washington and a few blemishes on the bust that I feel might preclude it from going higher........
I went with 66 because it looks like there are a couple of scratches on the left obverse field and maybe one on Washie's cheek. On a side note, it looks like somebody is rustling a herd of cattle just south of Amarillo. Chris
i have no idea how to grade modern SQ's.... I like the TX SQ's.. and like the mild golden tone this one has also.. very attractive imo. I'll say 65.?
I might send it in just to see what they say. It looks 67 material too me, but ownership usually adds a point. Still, the toning is nice, maybe I could recoup some of the grading costs from a toned type set collector.
I don't know about the 67, but you have the advantage of having the coin in-hand. I just don't know if it would be worth submitting. Recently, Shane sold 7 of my 2005 P&D CA SQ business strikes the were in NGC MS68, and they averaged $94.65 each. Numismedia shows only $16.25 for MS67 TX. Do you think the toning will bump it that much? Chris
