Message:: [QUOTE="proofartoncircs, post: 937243, member: 25952"]Thank you proofartoncircs and everyone else for this interesting thread. True or false...The 1970 D type M is relatively common, and more often than not, found in collector grade stocks of Washington quarters. The 69D, 71D, and 72D in both Type Ms and Bs are not. >>  True. But here is what I found in circulation about 1985.  I checked 1,000 of each date and mint of interest as I searched the quarters. 1969 D 12.0 % were type M, but this is a low mintage compared to 1970 D. 1970 D 11.2 % were type M plus 4.4% were class III doubled dies from both M and regular ciculation hubs? (Mint sets and dealers' stock mostly type M.) 1970 P 6.3 % were type M plus 0.1% doubled die (probably only 1 involved here)and again a rather low mintage. Type B per centages, this time calculated on my entire 1973-1988 search were:1969 D B 0.8%1970 D B 0.1%1971 D B 0.03%1972 D B 0.01%[/QUOTE]
