1916-D 25C MS68 NGC. Ex: "Col." E.H.R. Green. NGC and PCGS

quarters, and nearly 3,500 of those are examples of the 1916-D. Of
those 3,500 1916-D quarters, just one, the Eric P. Newman specimen,
has earned the impressive MS68 grade. The mint luster is dominant,
even once the significant gray-blue toning is factored in. There
are no abrasions apparent on either side. All these factors combine
to make this 1916-D quarter the ultimate example. Census: 1 in 68,

Truth Seeker: The Life of Eric P. Newman (softcover)
A powerful and intimidating dealer of the 1960s, backed by important colleagues, was accused of selling fraudulent gold coins and ingots to unsuspecting numismatists. Who would go up against a man like that and, over the course of decades, prove the fraud? Who would expose a widely respected scholar as a thief, then doggedly pursue recovery of coins that the scholar had stolen from an embarrassed numismatic organization, all over the objections of influential collectors who had bought coins with clouded titles? Eric P. Newman would - and did. Reserve your copy today.
