Description
High-End 1897-S Quarter, MS65
1897-S 25C MS65 PCGS. Totally white and brightly lustrous, with above-average eye appeal even for a Gem. For the year, 542,229 pieces were struck, making this one of the scarcer issues. The combined NGC and PCGS population reports show a total of 18 pieces graded this high, with eight graded higher for this date and mintmark (2/09). The strike on this coin is needle-sharp, with no signs of weakness; even the arrow feathers are full and complete. Faint die cracks are noted on both dies around the periphery. An outstanding coin for the collector who appreciates brilliant, untoned coins.From The Joseph C. Thomas Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
