Pristine MS66 1925-D Two and a Half
Tied for Finest Certified at PCGS

1925-D $2 1/2 MS66 PCGS. There must have been some astute Denver-area collectors by the mid-1920s who saved nice examples of the 1925-D quarter eagle, as it is the most frequently found issue of the series in the highest Mint State grades--a serendipity for numismatists today. The centers of this Premium Gem are sharply struck, with a hint of softness on the peripheral devices, including the mintmark. The surfaces are unevenly patinated in attractive rose-gold with lilac interspersed, and the only mark visible to the naked eye is a tiny nick in the obverse field near the bridge of the nose. Tied for the finest certified at PCGS. Population: 30 in 66, 0 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 289B, PCGS# 7949, Greysheet# 8618)
