The coin is darker than it appears in my pic.

I had a really nice XF well made specimen in 1995. The coin market was dead in those days and I could only get $5 for it.

The markets have been growing steadily since the states quarters began in 1999. I saw an offer for one recently for $80.

Most of my collecting friends in the '50's had the '24-D but it was usually in very bad shape. It was only a little tougher than the '26-S but the '26-S was usually in a lot better condition.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.

I found both the 24-s and the 24-D very frustrating when I decided to make a move to MS coins from whatever I had in my 'folders" (this was awhile ago). My search and some education from more experienced collectors led me to the fact that the dies in use that year weren't great to begin with and the branch mints pushed the limits leaving many coins come out in late die states that were "mushy". They looked old when new.
