MS65? *edited to say MS63/64 - too much chatter on the obverse relief*   Edited by dsfreeworld

I've looked over your quarter a couple of times -- waiting for an expert to post an opinion -- because I think I'm lousy at grading.
Still, somebody has to go first, so I'll say I don't think that 65 is out of line.

MS-64 doesn't seem out of the question.

I would say it looks like MS64 from those images; the hair has seen too much contact for me to go higher

Hard to tell by these pictures but I'd say you have too many contact marks on the curls by the ear. And some over the rest of the coin. At most it's a low MS coin that's been handled a little ruff in the past. Luster looks great. I'm gonna say MS-61. But need better pictures to say for sure

34 Medium motto? Looks like LOTS of luster, but the rub on the hair and ticks on the obverse, with the tick on the eagles right leg, leaves me at MS61 on this as well.

I'm seeing surface friction on the high points, check front edge of hairline, outer edges of wings. AU-58

I am going to pull my MS61 and up to MS63. The light is definitely making this look worse than it is. May go 64, but I am staying at 63. NICE LUSTER. 30's dated Washington's are usually a "muted" luster, versus the vibrant 40/50/60's quarters.
