Lot Description

1902-S Barber Quarter. MS-65 (PCGS). OGH--First Generation. This semi key-date Barber Quarter issue represents a particularly important find in Gem Mint State. Exceptionally well preserved in all regards, the present example is silky smooth in sheen with nary a distracting abrasion to report. Dusted with light silver-gray patina, the surfaces are also possessed of full luster in a softly frosted texture. A sharply struck condition rarity from an original mintage of just 1.5 million pieces.
