3 Types Of Washington Quarter Reverses?

Weheew!. Thanks to this thread, I found ONE in 12 rolls of quarters.
A 1958p type "B" reverse.

Congrats Harvey and Acidic! That's wonderful news!

Roach, unsure on the prices still, there's a lot of flux right now as people are now starting to go back and find them. Assume around $10 for the 1963. It's one of the more common ones. The CherryPicker's has a few up in the $150 range, but I'd be rich if that was true.

I did some research of my own and came up with this great site for error and varieties for US coins http://overdate1.tripod.com/coinvar...s/index.html
if you go to this site it tells you that there were 3 types of wash quarters
1956 thru 1964 there was Type A weak leaves on reverse and Type B strong leaves
They have been assigned Breen# 4375 thru 4414
The type C exists on both the 1964P(Breen#4412) and 1964D(Breen 4415,FS-024.7)
Type C reverse occurred as these coins transitioned to the new 1965 reverse(some of the 1964's got the reverse of the new clad coins)Type C rev is the most rare! Type C reverse have bold tail feathers with strong vein running thru them.

I finally found some pricing information!

        56    57    58    59    60    61    62    63    64    64-D
AU-50   30     6          15     5    12    25    10    13     75
MS-60   40     7                 6    16    60    35    20    125
MS-65  100    10                10         175   120    95    450

The only one I find to be totally off is the 1963. I have found plenty of fine examples quite easily.

Has anyone seen a 1964P Rev C? Never seen one for sale and I haven't tried looking for it. If it does exist, I'll pull out my bag of circ quarters and go through them again. Here's a nice picture of a BU 1964D Rev C I found a few weeks ago. Notice the lines splitting the tail feathers.

Well, I'm short in the 1956 category, but here's the rest of my population. I hope this helps other with rarity.

Proof die reverses always have a space between the E and S in States at the top of the rev of quarters from 1956-thru 1964. Some of the circulating coins for this period got proof die reverses(ie:Type B rev). And apparently in 1964, they changed the rev die for the proofs(bold lined tail feathers) and some of the circulating coins got proof die reverses(ie:Type C rev)...so far only population known from the Denver mint.

That's fantastic Jaobler!
