<p>[QUOTE="NotSure, post: 763888, member: 20034"]Duke....don't count on there being 'plenty'. Also remember, this isn't the only forum these are being discussed on. These are being sought out now in greater numbers, and where they may have been passed over during cherrypicking in the past, you'd better be the first to the tables at FUN to look, as if you aren't the first, any and all will be sought out, found, and gone. Once dealers start to see whats going on, then it could be 'katy bar the door' (some dealers, the sharpest ones, already do recognize what's going on with them).</p><p> </p><p>I only gained my knowledge from learning from THE man on this topic...and due to his efforts, these have very recently been added to the CU price guide (thus far, only the '56 and '61), and already, the '56 in MS66 has a green arrow indicating a price increase. These Type B's WILL see price increases, as the are now required for the PCGS 'Washington Quarters Complete Variety Set, Circulation Strikes (1932-1964)' Registry set. These were virtually an ignored, minor variety as recently as 3-6 months ago. Then, pops were paid attention to (for instance, in PCGS plastic, only 37 TOTAL '56 Type B, 45 TOTAL graded '62, 55 TOTAL '61), combined with the inclusion to the registry set....people realized the true scarcity of these, and now......they are just starting to really take off. Listings on ebay, well, listings went from 1-2, usually unattributed in PCGS or NGC plastic, to currently 55. </p><p> </p><p>I can't stress enough, though, that these really need to be MS65/66 minimum (save for the rarer dates...'56, '62, '61.....minimum 64/65). In order to have them properly attributed, the cost involved to have them graded, you'd really need them in these grades. If you are a 'naked' collector, just make sure you have them as close to gem as possible. The real premiums are in the aforementioned grades, in PCGS plastic. Any other slab, just not going to get the big $$ (ANACS crossovers that I have experienced come back 1 solid point lower minimum...but these ARE being graded tightly, so you'd better have a sure 65 minimum before sending in).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
