Wow. Never seen die over-polishing to that degree!
Nice example.

Very nice example of a polished die @will. Well done.

This it is a very rare kind of coin in the quarter series 1932 - 1964. It is Type B so it is an proof coin. Hat down for this pic-up on e-bay where the photos are in general worst.

@Nick This coin it is Type B and this design was use only for the proof coins. So it is an proof design Die.

@ Sil. I'm just seeing your idea of a proof reverse. I was excited so I compared it to the dies on vv. I think what you see as a high leaf is actually some part of the clash. Maybe the eyebrow. Thanks for the idea either way.

@ Will: Thanks to reply.
For me it is very interesting coin. Show me features of normal strike as also Type B. As example: Normal strike the tail feathers are week, and in type B medium case here. Type B short N leg. Type B leafs under the arrows well define. Leave upper A here is left to touch which in normal strike is well center on A and do not touch.
Are others features of Type B and many from normal Type A.

That bird had it's wings clipped.
(ps- the distance between the ES looks normal to me.)
