Lot Description

1895-S Barber Quarter. MS-65 (NGC). Warmly patinated in even sandy-silver patina, both sides exhibit a smooth satin texture to sharply impressed features.

Mint State survivors of even marginal quality are scarce, while Gems such as this are nothing short of rare. PCGS# 5612. NGC ID: 23Y6. NGC Census: 9; 3 finer (MS-68 finest). Provenance: From the Frog Run Farm Collection.
