I like the 1830 CBH very much. The 1903-O Barber quarter does not have original surfaces. The 1858 Seated Liberty quarter shows no reverse, but...
Yes, yes. Your quarter is wonderful. Oddly enough, although I have several nice 1957-D WQs, I have never been able to pick up a coin like yours...
Yes, "impaired proof" is a common and accepted term for circulated proof coinage. Personally, I prefer to reserve that term for proof coins that...

It might be more effective to go to the nearest gas station and pour gasoline on your hands.
Oddly enough, I currently have an 1871 Seated Liberty dollar for sale on my website. The coin is graded by PCGS as MS63. This post is not meant...
I use three. The green demon at PCGS, a cropped reverse of a Washington quarter at NGC and this one.
I understand the color is off. The piece looks counterfeit to me.
Wow. I think that coin would look mighty cool in-hand. Does it have a very deep blue under the brown color? It's cool.
