DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9866 Posts	Posted 08/27/2015 8:29 pm 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... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
Silverfox2010 Valued Member Canada 68 Posts	Posted 08/28/2015 03:29 am 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 Report this Post to the Staff
SilverDon Pillar of the Community Canada 2360 Posts	Posted 08/29/2015 09:41 am 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.

Silverfox2010 Valued Member Canada 68 Posts	Posted 08/30/2015 2:06 pm 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 Report this Post to the Staff
