This is not my first one of these but want to share a secret of mine with you. I don't think this applies for Lincoln's( they tend to be more RB than RD in these old holders). But as far as Washington quarters go, from my experience they almost always go up a grade when resubmitted to PCGS. I look for varieties that are worth much less in a grade lower. This is graded a 64 atm with a book value of $150 or so. I think it will pull a 65 at PCGS and have a $500 book value. Something to keep an eye out for. Thanks for looking.    Variety vista has this die erroneously listed as the 501. http://varietyvista.com/09b%20WQ%20...9DRPM003.htm

Congrats Will. I agree the older slabs tend to gravitate upwards in grade, for PCGS anyways.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Hi WILL, before to submit to PCGS and broke the holder do you check for the holder rarity? Sometimes the holder is more valuable then the coin which add value. (If you do not have the study for the slabs, PM me and I will e-mailed you if you can take 10MB PDF file)
Second, if you submit I hope for you have the 65, but the strange metallic flow on the observe and heavy polish Die made me be unsecure about. I agree with PETE of the tendency, and almost now when the CAC go also CACG in grading so another competitor for them. This it is another discussion but now we will have 5 graders and only one left for accurately grading the QC.
PS: I have this one (on my book it is ANACS 65) but for me it is a mystery to detect. D/S

Thanks sil. I have been away for the last two days. I agree this coin has a slightly mushy strike but has nice luster and tone. I also agree I have not seen an example of this die that show a D/S. The one vv has listed is the earliest example I've seen and could be a D/D imo.
