The '68-D quarter comes very nice. Top end specimens are "common" and often highly PL. Luster is very fine and very deep while strikes can be...
They are certainly discriminating against Cuban-Americans who can't buy or sell coins of their own homeland. ALL minorities are protected in...
The first is a beaut. These are rarely seen unc. The Rouble looks like it's all dipped out.
My gut tells me it's a high end 65 but better pictures would make it feel more confident.
There is no law against Cuba. It is evil to try to institute a law against a people. What's next; will they expunge Cuba from the maps and...
I'd wager this arbitrary and capricious behavior contravenes a dozen US laws. Imagine if they tried to suppress Israeli or Egyptian coins over...
Thanks. Sometimes I think the only way that moderns will ever get attention is to shame the price guides into listing accurate prices. I think...
I just checked eBay for '82-P quarters. There were more than usual and I saw four decent coins but they were going for $30 or more which is far...
The dealer simply didn't think of checking the Greysheet for the price since rolls at that time were so cheap. Even if he had checked finding a...
I used to drive around checking out banks for Gem examples of the current coins and checking dealer stocks of mint sets for older Gems. Sometimes...
The coins are worth more out of the set. The sets are the best, and often the only, source of coins from the last half century and their quality...
Interesting thread. I've liked Brazilian coins for many years and always pick up BU coins when I see them cheap. It's good to see there's...
I like the Kennedys and seem to like them a little more every year. Quarters are my favorite clads because Gems aren't too tough to find but are...
Join the club. I'm most always wrong. ;) I know quarters much better than dimes and clad dimes much better than silver dimes.
A lot of the early clad quarters come with a modified type "b" reverse.
There are some major differences in the silver years within specific dates as well. The '56 to '64 quarters come with both type "a" and type "b"...
Collectors who are interested in these design changes need to form a reference collection which is just extremely well struck and typical coins in...
There are fewer changes year to year in that era but I never studied these as closely so direct comparison is impossible for me. There are still...
The '85-P quarter appears with two different busts in the same year. The smaller one accounts for about .75% of mintage. Look at the distance...
I can tell the date of Washington's even if the date doesn't exist by the numerous changes made each year. Using a reference collection I can...
Separate names with a comma.
