Lot Description

1903-O Barber Quarter. MS-66 (PCGS). Blended steel-olive and pearl gray patina, both sides with iridescent undertones of golden-apricot very much in evidence as the surfaces rotate under a light. Sharply struck overall with a highly lustrous, silky smooth appearance. The New Orleans Mint struck 3,500,000 quarters in 1903, a respectable total for the Barber series, although the issue is still scarce to rare throughout the spectrum of Mint State grades. As an upper end Gem the coin offered here is decidedly in the latter category. PCGS Population: 5; 4 finer (MS-67 finest). PCGS# 5635. NGC ID: 23YW. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
