    I recently picked this and it seems like the MM location is slightly off from examples I’m finding. I’m almost certain it’s an S/D, is it possibly another variant? Or have I just been staring at it too long? :pompous:

    Also, will it grade straight? Any guesses as to what it would grade at are appreciated as well. First two are mine, second two are examples from PCGS. IMG_2482.png IMG_2477.png IMG_2483.jpeg IMG_2484.jpeg

    No. Not with those two hits from other reeded coins on the field o_O

    So, hits from other coins could keep a coin from grading?

    I've seen uglier, baggier Morgans streight grade, so why not this humble 25 cent piece?

    The top curve of the "S" is missing and straight. I do not think it is wexlers, IMO.

    The jury seems divided. Don’t book that cruise just yet.
    Maybe a couple close ups of the mint mark with lighting from each side

    Maybe next time. I’ve got a D/S, the S/D seems much harder to find even though it’s supposedly the opposite.
