AboutMyCoin1935-D Washington Quarter in AU58
A 1935-D Washington quarter graded AU58 is that coin in one particular state of preservation — the date and the mint mark are already fixed, and AU58 is what a grader called the surface that survived. What that looks like on this coin is below. The nearest grade of this date this site does have a researched figure for is About Uncirculated (AU-50), at $139 to $163, from sales and public data.
What AU58 means
A 1935-D Washington quarter in About Uncirculated (AU-58) is as close to uncirculated as a circulated coin gets: the lustre is nearly complete and the only wear is a faint rub across the high points of Washington’s hair above and behind the ear that shows when the coin is tilted under a light. Many are better-looking coins than a low mint state example of the same date, and they sell for less.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade AU-58. They are the same grade and the same 1935-D Washington quarter.
