Lot Description

1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-63 (PCGS). OGH. Another Mint State example of this famous 20th-century. Many of these are found brilliant silver, while this one is deeply toned in champagne, russet, and steel gray. Strong mint luster shows through and gives the obverse something of sunrise appearance. A few scattered marks are seen upon close inspection, commensurate with the grade, but these are conveniently masked by the toning. Excellent originality makes this coin stand out.
