Description
1920 Quarter, Struck on a Peru 20 Centavo Planchet
MS60 Full Head Example
1920 25C Standing Liberty Quarter--Struck on a Peru 20 Centavo
Planchet--MS60 Full Head NGC. 6.9 gm. 76% copper, 23% nickel
(1% other). Seemingly normal at first glance, if more sharply
struck than the average quarter from 1920, but the weight is
off--6.9 grams vs. 6.25 on a proper Standing Liberty quarter
planchet--and the color is unusual by silver standards. The piece
was struck on a copper-nickel planchet of Peruvian 20 centavos
size, which accounts for the additional weight and the green-gold
and lilac colors that seem so out-of-place on what should be a
silver coin. Thanks to the extra material, the devices are
marvelously detailed, though they and the fields show wispy slide
marks that preclude a finer designation.
