How do you think I did? Seller had the set listed for $219 and I messaged him offering $200 thru the eBay message system. He accepted. There's a few beauties in there, and I'll have fun checking for varieties. http://www.ebay.com/itm/WASHINGTON-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Funny. To restore balance to The Farce, I frequently buy Washington Quarters, but I haven't lately. Uuuuuhaaaaahmmmmm.
Nice score! Until recently I didn't have an interest in Washington's but slowly I've been putting together a high AU-BU set of toned pre 64's. It's been a fun set to assemble in between getting coins for my 7070.
You WILL love this experience, until the tough holes on page 1 of a Dansco start mocking you. We won't be competing with each other, because I stick to nearly white coins. A little yellow is okay, but nothing else for me.
I think you did well. you'll need to see them in hand for better evaluation. Planning to complete the album?
I hate 2 be THAT guy - but the 1st things that crossed my mind were> 1) somebody picked out all the good ones, so will there be any gems left? 2) $100 +/- is closer to where i would like 2 be on this so there is a little meat left on the bone for a quick flip. 3) At that price you better hope there is a decent variety or 2 in there. 4)This would be a really nice start, to a complete set, if you are buying them to keep. Now go out there & score a 32 D-S>34/36 D & be a hero!!!!!!
My hope is to get rid of the junk and lower grade ones, find a couple varieties or money makers to recoup my $200, then keep the rest and slowly fill em up.
There are 35 silver coins in the set, so everything else is free if you figure I paid $5.71 per silver coin. Not too bad when you consider there are a couple toners and a bunch that appear BU.
That sounds reasonable i guess.... My favorite and most profitable way to sell silver quonas- is to buy those old savings bank books. Ya know, the ones where, if u fill them up (like $10) then u can take them to the bank and open up a savings account. Those always sell FAST, whether i sell them partial or full. They can be had pretty cheap too, way cheaper than what a dansco cost
I like that buy @ 200. That '54 looks beautiful. Just a couple weeks ago I was scouring eBay for an Unc. 1935 P for my album- regardless of the book value on those they were all going for over $20 a piece. I settled for an AU58 in an ngc slab for $22 and cracked it out. Hope to see photos of your favorites when they come in!
Awesome. Hope the rest of them fare well. Is the 1954 nice in person? I love that crescent moon toning look but can't see much on the condition from the photo. The 1953-s caught my eye as well.
