[QUOTE="proofartoncircs, post: 1056688, member: 25952"]I am looking at quarters at the moment. They may be higher relief than the previous version, but I don't think it compares to the original silver quarters. The relief on some coins were increased in the early 70's. Then they started lowering it. That is when Washington got hollow cheeks and spagetti hair. I believe this was done to increase die life and to go to one squeeze hubbing.[/QUOTE]
