    I bought this raw twenty eight years ago. I bid $309 in a Bowers mail bid auction and won. That was a lot of money for me at the time. I did well on this coin.
    Fell free to post your Draped Bust Quarters.

    Here are two I have in my type set.

    The 1796 Quarter in VF-25

    An 1807 in AU-55. This is in very low relief and a bear to photograph. I bought this from Catherine Bullowa many years ago. She thought that it came from the Brand Collection. This is an early die state. The reverse has some P-L luster around the eagle's head.

    This is a coin for my type set.
    I remember it because of the toning gaps on the obverse.
    I guess some "contaminant" (glue, etc.) was removed but it didn't bother PCGS; they straight graded it VF-35.
    And CAC agreed.

    Same problem.
    The "Image" icon doesn't work -- at least not for me.

    Very nice 6/5, Larry. You did indeed do well with that coin.

    I have a few draped bust quarters, none in very good shape. This is one of the better ones for which I paid $850 about 25 years ago.

    Just got it a few weeks ago. Not the greatest but happy to have one. That one you got is a beauty.
