Dazzling 1897-S Gem Quarter

1897-S 25C MS65 PCGS. The 1897-S Barber quarter is a difficult acquisition in any level of preservation and Mint State pieces present a very real challenge. Dazzling luster emanates from this lovely Gem specimen and a solid strike leaves complete delineation on the design features. Nearly untoned surfaces show just a wisp or two of light peripheral gold-tan color under magnification. The few grade-consistent marks take nothing from the coin's overall appeal. Population: 11 in 65, 3 finer (11/09).(Registry values: N2998)
