Description
Rare Gem Full Head 1918-S Quarter
1918-S 25C MS65 Full Head PCGS. The 1918-S at 11 million coins had, by far, the largest S-mint coinage of the entire Standing Liberty quarter series. However, an unintended consequence was a high percentage of coins lacking a Full Head. Cline's reference estimates that only about 3% of the issue has Full Head details. Some of the examples are "just made it" coins, but this piece is definitely not such a piece, and it is quite rare as such. A clear ear hole and three olive sprigs are blatantly visible, with complete separation of the brow and hairline all along the profile. A couple of shield rivets are faint, as normal. This piece has lustrous silver-gray surfaces with good eye appeal overall. Population: 32 in 65 Full Head, 6 finer (11/09).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2439, PCGS# 5725, GSID# 5576)
