Choice Fine 1896-S Barber Quarter

1896-S 25C Fine 15 PCGS. This Choice Fine key Barber quarter offers silver-gray surfaces that show a nearly full LIBERTY, save for the lower part of the T, and E PLURIBUS UNUM and much of the eagle's wing feathers are bold. The mintage for the issue was a memorably low 188,039 coins. There are no singular abrasions, although a loupe reveals some scattered, fine glitterlike dots on each side--an effect we have seen before, but whose cause we cannot guess.(Registry values: N1793)
