I've had this one lying around for quite a while, figured I'd bust it out and examine it.

OH, how pretty! If it were mine, I think I would have kept it in the 'antique' holder for conversation. But I understand your wanting it out for a bit. Obviously a near perfect cartwheel luster. A couple of tiny pings on the obverse rim at five o'clock and that pesky little mark in the field that Washington is staring at are the only distractions I see, and frankly they wouldn't bother me if I were looking to buy this coin as MS65 for $25.

Hmm, maybe it's a matte proof .
Nice uncirculated Quarter, love the tail feather feathers . MS-65 .
You should put that 2x2 in a separate holding , it sure is an antique .

Can't really evaluate surfaces on angled shots like these.

An antique needs to be at least 100 years old.

i'd take a real close look at the area to the right of the date along the rim to make sure its not corrosion of the planchet. hard to tell with this photos

When was the last time you saw corrosion on a silver coin ?
