Description
Superb Gem 1915-S Panama-Pacific Quarter Eagle
1915-S $2 1/2 Panama-Pacific Quarter Eagle MS67 PCGS. After a pair of commemorative failures shortly after the turn of the century with the Louisiana Purchase and Lewis and Clark gold dollar programs, Farran Zerbe achieved a measure of redemption with his distinctive and well-received (if not necessarily best-selling) five-coin program for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. While the fifty dollar pieces are the best-remembered coins from that set, the quarter eagle is also important, since it was the first commemorative design for that denomination. This gorgeous Superb Gem combines elements of peach-gold and sun-yellow with swirling luster. The well struck devices and slightly satiny surfaces are carefully preserved. This tied-for-finest-certified piece (6/08) is housed in a green label holder.From The Dan McClure Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
