Lot Description

1928-S Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-66+ FH (PCGS). Brilliant and frosty with a tinge of gold coloration near the borders on each side. More common in Mint State than a limited mintage of 2,644,000 pieces might imply, the 1928-S was obviously saved in significant numbers at the time of issue. However, most survivors are poorly struck and lack definition to Liberty's head and shield elements. The present piece is a significant anomaly of this issue, sporting exceptional preservation and incredible sharpness. Just 25 coins rank finer at PCGS through MS-67+. PCGS Population: 3; 25 finer through MS-67+ FH. PCGS# 5771. NGC ID: 243Z. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
