Ok I thinking ms60 but ding on face might bring it to au58 and I'm thinking is a 75/76 as the 76/76 tend to narrower/cleaner lettering. Or is that only on the proofs?

 

Just want to make sure, this is a circulation strike.

 

Ms65

 

I'd go MS-65 but the graders are pretty tough now days and they hate scratches. It looks like a bit of planchet scratching at the top of the drum which probably won't hurt the grade.

Any other date and that would be near the top but the bicentennial quarters come very nice.

I'd try a '76 mint set. This looks like the best out of several mint sets but I bet they were the '75.

 

Just a boost to see If any more grades before I post the PCGS grade.

 

65

 

AU 50 - Nice details but too many surface scratches

 

MS63 will be my guess

 

Here it is,

 

Oh wow that's a nice grade for that one. It looks like I still need practice grading Washington Quarters so please continue putting them up. Thanks!

 

Well, I have another bicentennial I want to put up, I think it might be interesting. I'll post it right now.

 

Cool I can't wait!!

 

A coin with many marks can still be MS, but it will only be AU or lower if there is wear.
