Exceptional 1897-S Quarter, MS65
Pedigreed to the San Francisco Mint
1897-S 25C MS65 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Eliasberg-Duckor. This
numismatic treasure from the famous Eliasberg Collection is a
brilliant Gem with mostly silver-white surfaces behind mottled gold
and steel toning. The strike is exceptional, and the overall
aesthetic appeal is outstanding. A great rarity in the Barber
quarter series, one of just 15 Gem or finer pieces that PCGS has
certified. A dozen years ago we handled an MS66 PCGS example, the
only finer PCGS piece in any of our auctions. The mintmark is far
to the right, centered over the upright of the D. Population: 11 in
65, 4 finer (6/09).Ex: San Francisco Mint (11/1897); J.M. Clapp; Clapp Estate (1942); Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr.; Eliasberg Estate (Bowers and Merena, 4/1997), lot 1563.
