Post a Washington quarter

Everyone's got their own ideas. I want to try bunker-C next time. Had some good results with olive oil lately on an AE gunked up coin. Used a toothbrush and a toothpick too.

Just found a nice BU 1969-D from a mint pack

 

1969, that's the year I went to Vietnam...

 

Thank you for your service sir.

 

Thank you for your service!

 

Here is another proof from a lot I acquired a while back for about 50cents a coin. These were in 2 x2 holders but not stapled and they were put into a flip with a card in the other side with a date of 6/91. So there is some haze in the field but also a nice gold/tan tone on these.

Question is would it be better to roll some EZest with a q-tip which would take care of the haze but take the 28 year toning with it or leave as it?

 

Whitman album letter transferral...

 

My first 2019 quarter in the wild today...Denver mint...

Just a 1957 in splendid condition. Not good with the trusty iPhone camera though so can’t see the shine very well.

 

Looks to be a Type B reverse on that ‘57.
Is it a proof?

 

I guess so. I bought a rather large lot of coins some time ago and found around 6-8 of these in various years. I always figured they were proofs since they were so shiny. What are they worth compared to regular ones in similar condition? Excuse my ignorance...I’m just a stacker and not into the numismatic side at all.

 

from pocket change:

 

Not sure if it’s a proof or a circulation quarter from your pictures.
Check them out on E-bay to get an idea what it might be worth.
Either way it’s a keeper.

 

I haven't seen ANY 2019 quarters in circulation, and I found both of them yesterday metal detecting. (I'll need better examples for my album.) Today I pulled a nice low mintage El Yunque which should clean up with acetone and replace my album coin. And the Chaco Culture also low mintage.

 

It looks like the one above with a mirror finish. I just can’t get the right angle with my phone. Thanks!
