1893-S 25C MS65 认证号08545945, PCGS号5606

Like the 1900-O and 1913 in the Sunnywood Collection, our 1893-S quarter previsouly graced the wonderful collections of both Glenn Church and John Hugon. This beautiful example is aglow with semi-prooflike surfaces and contrast. It is a tribute to this coin that no finer specimen could be located by any of Church, Hugon or Sunnywood.

In 1893, dies were manufactured for S-Mint Barber Quarter Dollars with the mintmarks shifted to the right.  This mitigated the problem of die chipping that resulted from the centering of the mintmark on the 1892-S Quarter Dollar.  Researchers have noted two different mintmark positions on the 1893-S Quarter Dollar: one with the S positioned above the space between the R of QUARTER and the D of DOLLAR and another with the S positioned above the left edge of the D.  Examples of both can be seen by clicking on the "View All Images" link.
