What identifying feature did you use on this worn quarter. I'm new to the grading and identifying here so I'm just asking for advice? Did you use the spike of her hair?

Briank, in hand it is straight forward to look at all the markers to make a determination.
the hair, gown fold at base, shield, gown below the arm.
The link above posted by acloco has some details, but Johnny54321 has also posted some good info.
I plan on sending these in for slabbing some time this year, I expect a mix of PO1 and FR2,
don't think that even the best one would make it to AG3

That's a great find. I'm jealous. I've been looking to find a dateless for a while.

Wow - amazing. I'd love to find one, have been trying for a couple years, know the marks to look for, just haven't had the luck yet. YET....... :D
Congrats and hey, even in that condition, that coin would sell for several hundred dollars.

The drapery just above the 1 is flat enough to be the real deal.

Hey, you caught up to me again Gary! Congratulations my friend. With 6 now, you probably own enough to impact the market. ;-)

Great find and very impressive that you have found 6 of them. And great details on the differences. That really helps out a lot to see them for someone that doesn't follow the series. So were they selling that quarter at melt value then?

Thanks everyone.
I paid $11 dollars for it, and I was only able to get one of the other 5 for melt (~$7), the others all ran up in price to 100's of dollars.
