Description
1908 Quarter, Multicolor PR68 ★
Ex: John C. Hugon Collection
1908 25C PR68 ★ NGC. Ex: Hugon. Concentric bands of
orange-gold, powder-blue, and apple-green dominate the obverse. The
reverse border shows golden-brown and aquamarine at the margin
though the frosty eagle and nearby glassy field are untoned. A
prize for the connoisseur of patinated silver proofs, this
Star-Designated 1908 Barber quarter is tied for the finest
non-Cameo proofs known. It is mainly the toning that keeps this
piece from a Cameo designation, as the silvery central reverse
shows moderate contrast between the eagle and the field. The strike
is full throughout. Census: 1 in 68 ★ , none finer with a
Star designation, 1 finer as PR69 Cameo (11/12).Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2005), lot 4190; FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2013), lot 4238.(Registry values: N4719)
