详细说明: Radiant Gem 1926-S Standing Liberty Quarter 1926-S Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-65 FH (PCGS). The luster of this piece is truly exceptional, offering a bright and flashy complexion that radiates under a light source. Sapphire and bronze iridescence accents the borders on each side, framing essentially brilliant centers and emphasizing the sharply struck central elements. The surfaces are free from observable blemishes and contribute to superior eye appeal in every respect. The low survival rate of the 1926-S is somewhat of a mystery. In this year 1,716,000 quarters were struck at the Denver Mint and nearly 2/3rds more, 2,700,000 coins, were struck in San Francisco. However, the 1926-D was saved in quantity but the 1926-S saw heavy circulation and few remain for today's collectors. A notorious strike rarity in a series replete with very challenging issues, the 1926-S is hardly ever offered with even above-average definition. As a no-questions Full Head with premium Gem-quality surfaces, this is an important example that ranks near the finest certified by PCGS. It is tied with 20 other coins at the MS-65 FH grade and only 12 rank finer through MS-66+ FH. Provenance: From the Anne Kate Collection. PCGS Population: 21; 12 finer through MS-66+ FH. PCGS# 5759.
