Paralyse's 1939-S and 1946 Washington quarters illustrate the point well.

Super helpful discussion. I realize I'm way late replying, but how much of these descriptions are generalizeable to all coins vs denomination specific? Or maybe degree of frosting or PL is denom specific?

I collect 3CS and find lustre more challenging in this series than Morgans, for example.
