hey guys. I am new to the site..i have been a casual collector of coins and bills for few years.. as well as other cool collectible stuff.
recently I obtained a 1973 big bust quarter. it is in ok condition. I am not that well rounded on the proper grading terms, so I can not put a code on it for you. I'm wondering, is this a coin that is somewhat sought after or should I hang onto it?

Depends on what/why you are keeping it for.....but it is a "rarer" variety and worth a few dollars (depending upon condition). Keep it if you are a collector, but sell it if you are an investor would be my advice.

This is what a current online dealer is selling/asking for their 1973 Large Bust quarters........(if you were wondering)........sorry, don't have the current Cdn Coin News Trends with me today, but I would guess you could sell for about half of what the prices are below to any collector/dealer (or keep for your collection).

For self-grading, try getting a Charlton coin book at the library or store or you can go online as well to several sites that might help.....

1973 Large Bust 134,958,589 VF-120.00 EF-150.00 AU-180.00 MS60-250.00 MS63-750.00 MS64-1,500.00 MS65-2,500.00
