1983 P washington quarter

[Davids5104]

i am kind of into the MS66 1983P washington quarter. I now have 4 with my first "spitting eagle" variety graded by NGC. It appears there are 25 of this variety graded by NGC at MS66 however, when i go to see what varieties of washington quarters NGC will grade I do not find this coin on the list. Does anyone know what i am missing. I also decided to become an associate member of NGC today so I am asking for some thumbs up and good jobs as well.

The 1983-P spitting Eagle is a relatively new listing for the NGC Variety Plus service, and I think its omission from the catalog is an oversight. They have recognized 101 examples, to date.

Those that I have seen look more like an eagle that is drooling rather than spitting. The Morgan dollar with the spitting eagle looks more realistic.
