<p>[QUOTE="WashQuartJesse, post: 1024967, member: 18323"]Bowers' book does a good job of familiarizing collectors with the more difficult to come by coins in the series. It teaches us why they are/were difficult to come by. He takes us back to the days when quarters were saved in roll quantities. His recollections of the dates, in relation to the difficulty of locating them in roll quantities (back in the day), pretty much run parallel with the prices we see today. Put differently, his experiences drastically influenced the market (IMveryHO lol). For example, if it was hard to find a 19whatever roll(s) than that coin is currently "priced" higher than a 19whatever which was more easily found back then. Much has happened to those coins which were in these rolls. Many have been damaged, many were sub 63 UNC, and many have been melted, etc...but it's a good starting point to research true supply. I'd like to see prices more accurately reflect today's true supply.</p><p><br /></p><p>With that said, how many people here currently own a 1937-s Washington in 63 or greater?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
