1934 25C Heavy Motto MS66 认证号38871822, PCGS号85794

I love doing the research on all my coins, this coin was submitted back in 2004-2005 and found out the next two coins (Heavy Motto) were both graded MS 66. This coin is like most of my others, buy the coin that you believe could upgrade. Even if I never send them back I always feel good about the coin I purchased. Another coin with a clean face and neck area and it appears to have a slight reverse rotated die. First coin purchased 2019. Upgraded to a MS 66 Jan 29 2020

Three obverse hubs were used to produce 1934 Quarter Dollars, as follows:

Light Motto - aka Type of 1932 - IN GOD WE TRUST mushy and indistinct

Medium Motto - aka Type of 1935 - IN GOD WE TRUST stronger, but the letters are thin

Heavy Motto - aka Type of 1936 - IN GOD WE TRUST very strong, the top center of the W is higher than the left and right strokes (diagnostic)

Quickfinder Notes: The letters of the motto "In God We Trust" are thick and rather flattened on the scarce Heavy Motto (Type of 1936) quarter. To further distinguish it from the common Medium Motto (Type of 1935) variety, just look at the center peak of the W in "WE". On the Heavy Motto variety, the center peak extends ABOVE the outer diagonals of the letter. On the Medium Motto, the center peak is WELL BELOW the outer diagonals.
