Lot Description

1943-S Washington Quarter. FS-101. Doubled Die Obverse. MS-66 (PCGS). CAC. Intense frosty to semi-reflective luster greets the viewer from both sides of this bright and brilliant example. Striking detail is razor sharp throughout, the surfaces impressively smooth in preservation. One of the most dramatic Doubled Die varieties in the Washington quarter series, and well known to specialists, the 1943-S FS-101 presents a considerable challenge in grades above MS-64. This is the finest we have offered in more than a decade, and it represents a fleeting opportunity for advanced collectors. PCGS Population: 14; 7 finer (MS-67 finest). CAC Population: 11; 1.
