Owner's Comments

I bought this off eBay from madeyourday16 in an NGC holder MS-67. I thought it was the DDO variety, but the coin is the minor variety DDO. Lesson learned with this coin. It is probably best to just pay for the coin in the holder than trying to make the coin. Also PCGS graded it MS-66, which was a double disappointment. It should be 66+ at least and probably MS-67.

Expert Comments

David Hall

The 1951 is the rarest of the three 1951 Washington quarter issues in Superb Gem MS66 or better condition. This issue tends to be a little baggier than the Philadelphia and San Francisco Mint coins. In MS65 or better condition, this one is a little better than middle of the pack for the 1941 to 1964 Washingtons.
