ksammut Pillar of the Community United States 1003 Posts	Posted 09/26/2015 6:46 pm While searching "junk silver", I found a 1963 Washington quarter in uncirculated condition. I remembered the three things to look for in a Type B Reverse: 1. A strong, pointed leaf tip. 2. The leaf tip extends over the arrows. 3. A small gap between the A and R in "Dollar". All three of these are present on this coin, or at least I believe so. Do you think it is a Type B reverse? Thank you for looking! Report this Post to the Staff

Pete41 Valued Member United States 261 Posts	Posted 09/26/2015 7:52 pm Take a look at the following website for the diagnostics of the Type B. Two are different than your recollection, so more photos are needed yo be sure about yours. The E S in states and if the leaf touches the A in Dollar. http://boards.collectors-society.co...mber=3707446 Report this Post to the Staff

ksammut Pillar of the Community United States 1003 Posts	Posted 09/26/2015 8:27 pm Thank you Pete41 and coop. I checked my coin and the leaf does touch the A. There is also a larger than normal gap between E and S of States. I will take pictures tomorrow. Thank you for the help. Edited by ksammut 09/26/2015 8:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff
