Lot Description

1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. AU-55 (NGC). An issue that needs no introduction among specialists, the 1916 SLQ is one of the rarest quarters struck in the 20th century United States Mint. One of just 52,000 pieces produced, the coin we offer here escaped a short stint in circulation without acquiring more than trivial highpoint rub. The overall definition remains quite bold, as such, and the reverse alone has the initial "look" of a BU grade. Partially lustrous, and minimally toned, we anticipate strong bidder interest in this key-date coin. PCGS# 5704. NGC ID: 242Y. Click here for certification details from NGC.
