Lot Description

1908-D Barber Quarter. MS-65 (NGC). CAC. OH. Crescents and halos of rich midnight-blue and pinkish-rose iridescence engage the peripheries of this beautiful Gem. The centers are brilliant, and the surfaces are highly lustrous throughout. Although the mintage was 5,788,000 coins, Q. David Bowers (2019) notes that Gem Mint State survivors of the 1908-D are "rare in relation to the generous mintage." The Larry H. Miller specimen is a gorgeous coin worthy of strong bids. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. NGC Census: 19; 8 finer (MS-68 finest). PCGS# 5650. NGC ID: 23ZD. Click here for certification details from NGC.
