What PR60 means
A 2008-S silver proof Washington quarter in Proof (PR-60) is a proof that has been handled badly: the mirrors are there but dulled, and the open fields of Washington’s cheek and jaw carry hairlines heavy enough to see without magnification. Nothing about it circulated — this is what happens to a proof taken out of its packaging and wiped.
A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade PR-60, PF60 or PF-60. They are the same grade and the same 2008-S silver proof Washington quarter.
