[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 1636307, member: 4626"]What year is that? And looks to be about as much chest detail as the OP's coin as far as I can tell (but kind of hard to tell because of the smaller picture). Well not sure how picky NGC is these days. But I still think it's a 65 at least (and I've seen many 65's that look a lot worse. It may not be quite as fully struck as the ebay coin, but it has a lot less marks than I've seen on a lot of Washington quarters that only got a 65, so I still think a 66 is possible. I own a PCGS-graded quarter that got a 65 that looks way worse than the OP's coin). But then who knows, could depend on what the grader has for breakfast that day. Even the best TPGs aren't perfectly consistent. Less marks but weaker strike, is that a wash or does having fewer marks make it better? I know what my opinion is, and what yours is, but wouldn't hazard a guess at what the grader's opinion will be.[/QUOTE]
