<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 421732, member: 5233&quot;]I appreciate your kind words.&nbsp; I seem to have trouble grading Washington&#039;s for some reason...they are among the more challenging coins for me.&nbsp; One thing I noticed on this coin was how wonderfully clean the fields are...I felt they warranted a high MS grade.&nbsp; However, it seems that many of these late 60s clad coins tend to have a somewhat mushy strike.&nbsp; Maybe it&#039;s the pic, but the eagle on the reverse doesn&#039;t seem to have much detail.&nbsp; I have noticed this a lot on these coins and have wondered if it is because the clad is so much harder than silver.&nbsp; I have always assumed it took the mint a while to get the quality straightened out following the metal change.&nbsp; But, with the beautiful toning, I feel that a &quot;*&quot; is warranted on coin&#039;s like this...and I&#039;m surprised it didn&#039;t.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
