- Underrated 1894 Quarter in Gem Mint State
1894 Barber Quarter. MS-66 (PCGS). CAC.
This handsome quarter has warm copper-gray patina with more vivid cobalt blue, champagne-pink and golden-apricot undertones. Soft mint luster is noted on surfaces that are perfect for the assigned grade. Fully struck and very appealing. The 1894 is one of the more underrated issues from the early Barber quarter series. With 3,432,000 coins struck, it has the lowest circulation strike mintage for any Philadelphia Mint quarter from 1892 through 1909. Mint State survivors are far scarcer than those of the 1892, 1893 and other issues, although this fact is not widely recognized among more generalized collectors. As a premium Gem the Pogue specimen is a decided condition rarity that would serve as a highlight in any cabinet.
Estimate: $1,500 - $1,800.
Provenance: From Heritage's San Francisco ANA Signature Auction of July 2005, lot 6053.
PCGS Population: 9; 5 finer (all MS-66+).
