Description

Highly Lustrous 1893-O Quarter, MS66

1893-O 25C MS66 NGC. There is a wide variance in striking definition on 1893-O quarters. Some are well brought up, such as this piece, and others are, well, not quite as nice. The mint luster on this coin is exceptional and frosted, more suggestive of an S-mint than a coin from New Orleans. The surfaces are smooth and almost free of abrasions, and the mint brilliance is surrounded by a ring of pale golden over the denticles on each side. Census: 6 in 66, 5 finer (3/09).
