Description
1896-O Quarter, MS66
Delicately Toned Condition Rarity
Only Two Coins Numerically Finer
1896-O 25C MS66 PCGS. The 1896-O Barber quarter is often
overshadowed by its key-date San Francisco counterpart, when in
reality it is nearly as rare in Gem or finer grades. PCGS shows a
population of three coins in MS66 and none finer for the 1896-S,
while for the 1896-O a population of just four coins in this grade
(one of which is Plus graded) and two numerically finer are noted;
in MS65, the 1896-O is actually rarer than the 1896-S, with just
eight and 10 coins certified respectively (4/20). This piece is
boldly struck, with beautiful preservation that leaves no doubt as
to its assigned grade. Frosty luster underlies uniform olive-gold
toning on the reverse and more mottle violet-gold color on the
obverse. An immensely appealing coin in every respect.Ex: Anderson DuPont Collection, Part II (Stack's, 11/1954), lot 1935; Farish Baldenhofer Collection (Stack's, 11/1955), lot 503; FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2015), lot 4104.(Registry values: N4719)
