Not mine, something I am considering purchasing. In an old small no problem ANACS holder with barcode. Seven digit number. Poor photos, but all I have. Any thoughts on grade? I am hoping for an upgrade (naturally) if I choose to crack it or cross it. A good set of reed tracks across the forehead/hairline. And some pretty good dings on the neck. Looks (to me) like a good strike, and the reverse shows no problems to my eye. Being a 32-D, are the top tier (PCGS is probably where it will go) graders going to be extra tough?   Edited by Jon K

I won't divulge the grade and ruin the game, but I had pretty good success crossing over, laterally, old white ANACS slabs to PCGS.  Ridiculous First Class shipping! Edited by oih82w8

Not too sure about grade but it looks like a High AU to a mid MS. Amazing coin!  |

For extreme rarities I know they are more generous with the grading. I don't know if this would apply to a key date Washington quarter though. I'll give it an ms63. |

A couple of dings on obverse, reverse is nice. MS63.

Cant tell for sure if that is a bit of rub on Washingtons cheek, if not it looks like a 63 to me.

Hold up! I found where it sold at Heritage. And have a much better photo as a result. I know how things scream at the camera, but I completely missed the hit on the chin!! Anyone want to change their vote?  |

It may not be so bad in hand, though. I don't think either picture is appropriate for viewing the chin area.
If it is as bad as it seems to be in the second photo, I could see it in a pcgs 62 if you crossed it over from anacs, but still with a possibility at a 63 - I've seen worse in 63 holders.

Looks like a 63 to me based on the photo. The luster is quite impaired so MS62 from PCGS would not surprise me.

I am at 62. Believe there is too many small hits on the obverse. STILL a nice coin though.

I'd go with MS-63, it's a nice coin that I'd consider purchasing!

Okay, the reveal. MS62 I was hoping to buy it for 62 money and crack it. Should come back in a 63 holder. Really looks good in this pic. Au contraire mon frere . . . . once I have studied the Heritage pic, I believe it is dead on 62. Maaaaybe 63, as the majority of people here have indicated, but I am not "feelin' it" so will let it pass. I have obscured the serial and bar code so as not to blatantly screw up anyones sale.  |
