1932-D Washington Quarter

VG-8. not sure if the lighting in the photos is too bright or the coin was cleaned. What does it look like in hand?

I'll say VG-08, I think. I guess.

I was looking first in the range of G-4 to F-12. grading coins by photographs 2nd edition book mentions for g-4 and g-6 On 1932 and some 1934 coins the in god we trust motto is so worn that some letters are missing so since that area is worn in that way on this coin, it may only be able to grade as a G-4 or G-6 if that must be better to go higher. The overall appearance is capable to be potentially in the VG-8 to F-12 range otherwise discarding that specific area but I'd have to look over some graded examples.

Edit: The book The American Numismatic Association Grading standards for United States coins book mentions for G-4 Half of motto is readable which also is borderline here, so maybe a G-4.

I will send this coin for Authentic forensic. I do not have in hand to pronounce, but are some points unclear. -4. Sorry: majority of copies was -4 and -8. Hope help.

@Coin 1. The left line of the 1 in date it is out of chin. must be aligned. Here we have the inner line align. 2. distance between 3 an 2 in the date is to big 3. The T's in US different. I will not go more deep in the design like the wings, leaves. Look at the leave over the A in dollar, it is the design for RDV-008. Hope you understand me.

PS: I wrote according of the original design for 1932 to 1937 inclusive.

thanks for the responses. I'm in agreement with datadragon seeing a either a weakly struck coin or worn dies (my choice). the jawline and date are fairly strong as the entire center of the reverse is completely different than the top and bottom. barring strike or die issues I have it at F12. what do they deduct for the minting issues is a toss-up.

i dont slab coins so it stays as is. this coin was taken from circulation when I was just a pup starting out collecting many decades ago. I'm not trying to justify an F12 grade but to point out the commonalities between my coin and the slabs where the areas in question are very similar

here are couple slabbed F12's to compare

ANACS F12 coins





PCGS F12

How thy grad those coins in this condition for me it is a mystery? ANA standard say one thing the grad come back is other thing from all major TPG's. Anyway, if we have a legitim one it is our winning day. In Quarters collecting, indifferent of the grade, all's want to have and also the S.
