Description
Elegant Premium Gem 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter
1916 25C MS66 PCGS. Though Philadelphia struck 52,000 Standing Liberty quarters in 1916, distribution did not take place until 1917. By combining the previous year's emission with examples of the 1917-dated Type One quarter, the distributors masked the rarity of the 1916-dated pieces. Unfortunately for numismatists, this gambit succeeded, and as a consequence, Mint State Standing Liberty quarters from the first year of issue are highly elusive.This pleasing Premium Gem is minimally toned save for a whisper of gold near the upper reverse rim. The upper part of Liberty shows slight softness overall, and the head is weak, but elsewhere, the overall definition is solid. Carefully preserved and immensely appealing. Population: 7 in 66, 0 finer (2/08).(Registry values: N7079)
