Lot Description

Gorgeous Target-Toned 1917-D Type II Quarter 1917-D Standing Liberty Quarter. Type II. MS-66 (PCGS). CAC. Displaying the vividness of toning that we have come to expect from the Barber and Standing Liberty quarters in the Pogue Collection, this beautiful 1917-D Type II reveals olive-gold, powder blue, salmon pink and champagne-pink colors from the rims to the centers in target-like pattern. Boldly struck in most areas with full, smooth, frosty mint luster. This is the first Denver Mint Type II Standing Liberty quarter and has a mintage 6,224,400 coins. Mint State coins are available in all but the highest grades, but the present Pogue specimen is set apart by its toning, which will hold great appeal to collectors of rainbow-toned silver. Estimate: $1,500 - $2,000. PCGS Population: 25; 4 finer in this category (MS-67+ finest). PCGS# 5716. NGC ID: 2435. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
