Description

Beautifully Toned 1879 Quarter, MS66

1879 25C MS66 PCGS. An exceptional high grade example of this low mintage date, the first in a string of low mintages that lasted almost until the end of the series. Medium russet toning covers both sides with lavender encircling the periphery. The underlying luster is attractive and is prooflike on the obverse, which is typical for an 1879. Liberty's head is full and the stars are well-defined, which is pleasantly surprising for this year of issue.(Registry values: P1)
