What MS65 means
A 1932-D Washington quarter in Mint State (MS-65) is a gem: no wear, full unbroken lustre, and marks so few and so small that the open fields of Washington’s cheek and jaw survive inspection under magnification. On a scarce date this is usually where the certified population collapses and the price stops following the grade in a straight line.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade MS-65. They are the same grade and the same 1932-D Washington quarter.
