    One of those die varieties that my brain kept telling me I would find - just to keep looking for it - has finally found its way to me. Best US coin cherrypick I've made in a while, made me glad I went to the show and also glad I made a second pass through the room. (I'm still on the lookout for the 1971 S Silver Proof Ike Dollar DDR and the 1961 Franklin Half DDR, my brain tells me I'll find one of each in OGP someday.)

    Coin is most likely going to receive a high AU grade when sent in (I think there is enough of something on the high points) but honestly...in hand the coin has a LOT more luster than I first noticed. PCGS shows only 19 MS60 or higher with 8 in AU58; NGC shows only 9 MS60 or higher with 2 in AU58.

    Second scarcest Washington Quarter die variety after the 1943 DDO (which I almost had an MS example of, but was shafted out of it by an eBay seller who caught on after I paid.)
