Jon K Pillar of the Community United States 723 Posts	Posted 02/05/2011 1:39 pm Can't argue. I put it @ F-12 because I have wingtips and 80% or so full rim. I don't like that the motto is nearly gone, but I think that might be more of a weak strike than wear. Looking for wisdom, what would make it a VG? Or what would keep it from being an F-12?

chris12018 Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 02/05/2011 1:50 pm More hair lines around ear and slightly visible breast feathers would help. Just my opinion. Do you have a Red Book? This would help you to figure grade and values. But, keep in mind that the red boob is anywhere from 25%-30% high. Again just my opinion Edited by chris12018 02/05/2011 3:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 02/07/2011 01:27 am I'd like to see full strong rims on both sides for a grade of fine. Reverse detail is stronger than obverse but overall I'd say VG-8. You need to be careful about added mintmarks on both the 1932-D and 1932-S. Deceptive forgeries are pretty common even for lower grades. Report this Post to the Staff

ACE Mike Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 04:01 am Put me down for VG-8. Just not enough hair detail for Fine-12. Not a large price difference from VG to Fine. Report this Post to the Staff
Jon K Pillar of the Community United States 723 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 09:04 am Well, as Charlie Brown would say, "Rats!" Report this Post to the Staff
ACE Mike Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 4:01 pm Jon, No rats about it! You have a very decent circ quarter there. And as I mentioned previously, the price difference is not large. My retail price is only $20 higher for certified F-12 vs VG-8, or $10 higher than VG-10 (which is probably what your piece would certify as). A nice no problem key coin. Report this Post to the Staff
upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3278 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 4:13 pm I agree "No rats about it" I would love those key date washingtons! For the record I agree on the VG grade Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 5:35 pm this is one of the coins I actually sold from my Grandfathers collection because I didn't collect Washington quarters and could not see holding on to a key date like this when so many others needs it to complete their sets. here is the pictures of the one he had and I think I was told it was in the F range at that time so you can compare Report this Post to the Staff
invisibleninja7 Valued Member United States 91 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 8:02 pm Are you sure that was Fine? The hair lines on the front are very nice and the only thing I can complain about is the eagle's breast is bare and two wing tips having uneven wear. That one looks at least VF-25, maybe VF-30 Report this Post to the Staff
ACE Mike Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 9:38 pm I agree. Looks more like VF-20 to 30. Good hair detail. Report this Post to the Staff
captainkurt Pillar of the Community United States 1406 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 11:03 pm Is it just me or does the dark around the mint mark worry anyone? Report this Post to the Staff
CEOcoinshop Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 11:17 pm Dark around mintmark and the weird "tail" off the top left of the "D" is pretty common. The depression that the mintmark is in, usually makes folks run scared... but that's the right look. IMHO Report this Post to the Staff
