[QUOTE="BostonMike, post: 184446, member: 7251"]I haphazardly buy early washington quarters. It's the series I like the most, and i try to mostly collect quarters from the 30's and 40's. However, instead of saving up and buying nice PCGS certified examples, i buy worn down circulated examples. I guess it's because I like to think of where a worn 1940-D quarter has been and who has used it vs one thatt spent it's entire life in a roll. I do have a few MS65 examples, but i think i'm more into the cheap circs. How can you not when you get them for about the cost of melt. WHo knows maybe after i buy one of each cheap raw circ example from 32-64 (especially 32-49) then i'll get back to buying nice MS certified quarters. But when i get bored, i browse Ebay for the worn examples i am missing. I just got a nice '40-D that would probably grade a Poor and is barely legible, but it was instantly one of my favorite quarters.[/QUOTE]
