<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 767126, member: 68&quot;]I said these come nice and they do but keep in mind that about 5% are ugly and unacceptable and about 30% aren&#039;t very attractive but are nice enough that beginning collectors would be willing to use them in their sets.&nbsp; About 50% range from nice attractive coins to very attractive but there will be a lot of scratches on these coins.&nbsp; Many of these are struck on burnished planchets and appear PL and sometimes very PL.&nbsp; 10% stand out as being relatively mark free and well made.&nbsp; I&#039;d call these mostly low end MS-64.&nbsp; About 3% are near gem to choice gem.&nbsp; Most of these are low end MS-65 and about 20% of this group is PL.&nbsp; The final 2% are solid gem and higher with some going up to MS-68 but most are more like high end MS-65.</p><p><br /></p><p>I seriously doubt that someone selling 5 &#039;86-D quarters from mint sets with pictures taken from across the room is selling high grade coins.&nbsp; I doubt many potential buyers would expect much more than dregs.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This is actually pretty good even by mint set standards.&nbsp; Some mint set coins run as high as almost 50% ugly and unacceptable.&nbsp; The &#039;69 quarter is this bad about 35% of the time.&nbsp; 5% near gem and better is also very good.&nbsp; Some are lower than .4%[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
