Delightful Choice Full Head 1919-D Quarter

1919-D 25C MS64 Full Head PCGS. The 1919-D quarter is infamous for poor striking quality, and Full Head examples of the issue are notoriously elusive. As J.H. Cline writes in his Standing Liberty Quarters, "The date is characteristically weak and Miss Liberty's head is most always flat. The rivets on the shield on the left side are usually obscured or obliterated completely."
The present near-Gem is a delightful exception, pleasingly detailed at Liberty's head and the shield with only a trace of softness on the lower rivets. The fields are vibrantly lustrous beneath splashes of reddish-orange toning, and occasional blue accents visit the margins. Silver-gray otherwise and attractively preserved for the MS64 designation. Population: 18 in 64 Full Head, 13 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)
