Description

1897 25C MS66 PCGS. A stunning coin that boasts very even blue and gray toning over the entire obverse and reverse. Luster glows through from the fields and everything about this piece is attractive. Excellent surfaces are the rule for this lofty grade, and close examination will note one faint scuff in the upper right obverse field near the stars and a couple of trivial ticks elsewhere. Sharply struck throughout, with a hint of weakness reserved for the uppermost feather tips on the arrows as nearly always seen on this series. NGC and PCGS have graded a combined 14 this high and importantly just a single coin higher of this date.(#5616) (Registry values: N2998)
