1951 S Washington Quarter - Key Date in XF Condition

Description

I've been a coin collector ever since I was perhaps 5 years old.  I'm getting on in the years so it's time to start divesting.  All of my auctions that you will see are items that I've held for decades.  This is a beautifully preserved 51S in XF condition.  To tell the difference between an F and an XF, look for two things - on the front look to see if you can spot any swirls in Washington's hair.  If they are rubbed completely down then it is Fine at best.  Same on the reverse - look at the chest of the eagle.  If the breast feathers are completely worn down then again, it is Fine at best.  On this quarter you can make out breast feathers and hair swirls.
