Not Sold Description
Surprising 1920 Quarter, MS60 Full Head
Struck on a Peru 20 Centavos Planchet
1920 Quarter--Struck on a Peru 20 Centavos Planchet--MS60 Full
Head NGC. 6.9 gm. 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 a combination
of pinscratches and wispy slide marks which preclude a finer
designation.
