Description
1924-S Quarter, MS66 Full Head
Major Condition Rarity
Ex: Just Having Fun-Swan
1924-S 25C MS66 Full Head PCGS. Ex: Just Having Fun.
Overall, the 1924-S is significantly scarcer than either the
Philadelphia or Denver issues of this date. In the Full Head
category, the comparative availabilities of the issues change
slightly, with the Philadelphia coin being the most plentiful by
far and the two branch mint coins similar in rarity -- however, the
1924-S is still the rarest of the three even in this category.
Typically, Full Head 1924-S quarters are seen only in MS65 and
lower grades, and such pieces are major rarities as fine as MS66.
Only a handful of finer examples are known.This remarkable representative comes from the former Just Having Fun Collection, which famously showcased representatives of each date in the finest or nearly finest condition known, almost all with Full Heads. Later, it was in the James Swan Registry Set, which was at the time the #1 ranked PCGS Registry Set in Full Head with major varieties. This Premium Gem 1924-S displays full detail on the date, head, and eagle, with minor weakness on the shield rivets -- virtually unavoidable on this San Francisco issue. Satiny luster shows delicate russet-gold toning that deepens slightly toward the borders. Population: 17 in 66 Full Head, 1 finer (6/24).
