Lot Description

Finest PCGS-Certified 1961 Quarter 1961 Washington Quarter. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC. Perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime bidding opportunity for the Washington quarter Set Registry collector, this dazzling Superb Gem is the single finest example of the circulation strike 1961 known to PCGS. In addition to virtually pristine surfaces, this coin displays beautiful multicolored peripheral toning that is bolder and more extensive on the obverse. The left obverse border exhibits intense charcoal-blue, brick red and antique gold. Razor sharp striking detail and bountiful mint luster add to the appeal. It is difficult to imagine a nicer survivor of this issue. Sure to sell for a strong premium. PCGS Population: 1; 0 finer. PCGS# 5870. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
