Is This 1961 a Proof? It has a mirror finish. Hard to get a good pic though. Also sorry about the flips. I don't have extras and where I live I don't have a coin dealer to buy any.

Thanks

Can't grade from those pics.
No proof quarters were issued 'til 1981.
Your '61 is from an Uncirculated Set (PL)
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Sorry, I meant Proof like. And yes the pictures are terrible. I will have to buy some more flips so I can take them out of the plastic to take better pictures and be able to put them in new flips when done.

Thanks for your help

The 1953 looks like a Large Date 25 Cents.
Too bad about the marks on the obverse,
looks like an MS coin but the tarnish/mark would bring the
grade down and may get a details comment.

I would give the 1961 a PL-64 (possibly 65) without seeing close ups.

The 1950 hard to say from that pic.

Nice silver quarters Silverfox2010.

I agree Don. It's a shame the 1953ld has those tarnish marks because it would be a very nice example without the tarnish marks. And the 1961pl I feel would grade 65 or maybe even 66? because I can't find one thing wrong with it and it's a stunning coin to look at in hand

Thanks for your help
