Thoughts on this 1964D quarter

Wondering how others might grade this 1964 D quarter?

Meant to add this dime also.

 

The quarter is approx. AU58, dump the dime.

 

The quarter is a low MS grade at best. Too many scrapes and dings to grade higher. It was the last year that 90% silver halves were made and they did not circulate, so a lot of junk silver ones will be a higher grade.

The Dime is clad and it’s called a MAD or misaligned die strike. Barely to no rim on one side and a larger rim directly across from the lack of a good rim.

 

I'm not understanding the relationship of this second sentence to the first. Maybe it's just me. After all, I'm just a horse.

 

I feel the coin in question has too many scrapes, dings, cuts, etc. for it to grade high. It may even be an AU grade and the weakness I see is either from a small amount of circulation or a weak strike. Does that make horse sense? Lol

 

Lol, that wasn't my question. I can see the scratches, I got good eyesight. How the second sentence about silver halves relates to the first about this silver quarter is my question. I agree with both sentences, taken independently, for what that's worth. How the second sentence about halves follows from the first sentence about this quarter is what don't make no horse sense, at least, not to this horse. But oh well...

 

Lol. What I figured.

 

Ya. The dime did not turn out. Away to the bank we go.

Hahaha, your horse sense is better than me. I didn’t catch that either time. Just change than Silver Half to a silver quarter and it will make sense. I just took a 2 1/2 hour nap and it helped. Saw it right away this time. I think I need a vacation. Maybe a hospital. Lol

Edited to correct spelling

 

"A horse is a horse, of course, of course..."

 

Try to keep each thread on just one coin. Create separate threads for each.

Also.. There's no need to quote yourself.

 

Simple oversight. They wouldn't even hospitalize a horse for that. But I like the point you were making, that the 90's started to be hoarded, then. Not the whole country, but a lot of us did start doing that, ending up preserving their conditions, as such. Methinks there's lotsa truth to that.

 

Oh Wilbur...

 

The famous Mr. Ed.

 

I need the hospital not you. They say bad money drives good money out of circulation. And clad money is what drove silver money out of circulation. Zinc cents are driving copper cents out of circulation.

 

How true.

 

but you forgot "but no one can talk to a horse - of course"
