I'm at my brothers house, we've been looking over more of my Grandfather's coins we have not yet split up. Just thought I'd take some quick pics of some stuff and share it. This is FUN!

That coin is a beauty, you can see all the breast feather on it. I'll take better pics when I get home, but I think it's easily MS.

The 1932-D Looks like it has some wear on the hair. Looks like it may be a Fine in my opinion. Great coins to get, too bad they have to be split up. At least a collector is interested in them rather than the "Coinstar" dumping that happens to some collections. The 1932-D Looks like the most valuable coin I've seen so far. Some collectors are watching for that one as it is a Key coin for the Washington quarter series.

I actually found a 32-D Washington quarter in the coins my grandfather gave me also that looked about in the same condition
Rest in Peace

The only rare coin I ever found in circulation was a 1932 D Quarter.
