Lot Description

1914 Barber Quarter. Proof-65 (PCGS). CAC. OGH--First Generation. Along with the 1913 and 1915, the 1914 is one of the scarcest issues in the proof Barber Quarter series of 1892-1915. This issue actually boasts the lowest mintage of the type with only 380 coins struck. A fully original Gem, the present example is nicely mirrored in finish with an overlay of warm silver-apricot patina. There are hardly any blemishes in evidence, and most areas are silky smooth in sheen.
