Description

Gorgeous 1893-O Barber Quarter, MS66

1893-O 25C MS66 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Duckor. The mintmark appears to have recutting inside the left curve, as David Lawrence described for Variety 101, except the mintmark is in the wrong position, centered over the left serif of the D. Two varieties showing apparently identical mintmark doubling with the mintmarks in vastly different locations suggest that a defective mintmark punch was employed to add the tiny letter on multiple reverse dies.
Frosty surfaces on both sides of this gorgeous Premium Gem are fully lustrous. The obverse exhibits light silver at the center, with peripheral sea-green, rose, and gold. The reverse has similar toning over the entire surface. Population: 8 in 66, 2 finer (6/09).
