Description
1897 Quarter Dollar, MS67
Among the Finest Known
1897 25C MS67 PCGS. Claiming a mintage in excess of 8
million coins, the 1897 Barber quarter is one of the more plentiful
issues of the period from an absolute standpoint, but like most
dates in the series, it becomes scarce at the Gem grade level and
is rarely seen finer. This piece is tied with just three others as
the finest certified at PCGS, and is rivaled only by a single
numerically equal example at NGC (10/14). Satiny luster shines
through shades of yellow-gold, lavender-gray, and aquamarine toning
on each side, with no obvious signs of contact observed upon close
examination. The strike is bold throughout, though some minor die
lapping is noted in the eagle's feathers around the shield and
behind Liberty's ear.(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 23YA, PCGS# 5616, Greysheet# 5393)
