Captivating MS66 1926 Quarter Eagle

1926 $2 1/2 MS66 PCGS. It is uncommon to locate this or any other date in the Indian quarter eagle series in such a superior state of preservation. The incuse design lends itself to abrasions in the fields, which are exposed here rather than recessed as on other coins. As a result, even comparatively available issues such as the 1926 are elusive in grades above Gem. This is a delightful coin that has strong mint frost and attractive golden-rose coloration interspersed with traces of lilac on both sides. It is a sharply defined piece that exhibits outstanding design details. Neither NGC nor PCGS has certified a numerically finer representative (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)
