Description du lot

Lustrous Mint State 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-62 (NGC). This is the key date to the regular issue Standing Liberty quarters with a tiny mintage of just 52,000 pieces. Mint State examples are scarce and in high demand from collectors. This example shows full mint luster in the fields with a reasonably sharp strike but not quite enough to bring up the head of Liberty fully. A few gold toning specks and a light silver patina are the only signs of age. This is an attractive and desirable example within the assigned grade. Numismatic Reflections by Q. David Bowers The 1916 Standing Liberty quarter has always been scarce -- decades ago and even more so today in proportion to the increased demand. The present piece will be just right if you are looking for an example at this level. PCGS# 5704.
