<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1958333, member: 26302&quot;]I have always noticed the same. I think I read somewhere that they got better making the planchets and mixing the alloy better somewhere around the mid 50&#039;s, that is the reason for the changes you see. Go back and look at buffalos, they will exhibit the same coloring and wear patterns. By relief I can usually tell a pre-65 nickel by its appearance also, as well as cents from the 60&#039;s versus later. I just went back a week ago and was messing around with some quarters. Man, its really sad how a silver washington quarter is a pretty attractive coin actually. Then you look at the POS monopoloy money garbage they churn out nowadays...... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
