[QUOTE="usmc60, post: 2733417, member: 76739"]Like I said I really don't know what's going on. If you had a hand of quarters, these quarters would be the first ones that you pulled out of your hand. Because when you're looking at the quarters in your hand these quarters stand out and slap you upside the head. They're not like the other quarters that you have, they visually stand out among the other quarters. If they made a proof circulated quarter this one would fall into the category. I'm sure I'm not the only one out there that has come across these kinds of quarters. Like I said last year read an article in coin world about the mint doing something to help promote new collectors into collecting coins. I don't know what would happen if Tom at the mint was told to take a couple of the circulated dies[ATTACH=full]622327[/ATTACH] And give them a good polishing with a mirror finish[ATTACH=full]622328[/ATTACH] I personally believe this is something that may have happened. And these quarters are the results. I personally do not know what kind of affect it would have if you polished a circulated die and struck a regular circulated planchet what the outcome would be. That's what makes these quarters so unusual they have such a polished luster about them. USMC60[/QUOTE]
