triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9415 Posts	Posted 05/25/2024 11:41 pm I have this very nice 1956 quarter, but I noticed the second A in AMERICA looks weak. I then checked a 1964-D that I have and that looked a bit weak as well, but not as bad as the 1956. Is this normal, or just a Greaser maybe? 1956 1964 Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96674 Posts	Posted 05/26/2024 09:00 am I'm with ijn mostly - most of my early quarters are a bit weak in that area, But it also looks a bit flattened out too. (Look how small the center of the 'A' is compared to the first one.) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

jbuck Moderator United States 188770 Posts	Posted 05/26/2024 5:22 pm I still do not see any indication of wear, so I will stick with MS63. The bag marks do not seem distracting enough to merit a lowly MS60.
