- Vividly Toned Superb Gem Uncirculated 1959 Quarter
Underrated Washington Issue
1959 Washington Quarter. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC.
A truly memorable example of this often overlooked 1950s quarter issue. The reverse is the more reserved of the two sides, and it exhibits speckled olive-russet peripheral highlights to otherwise dominant pearl-gray patina. For the obverse, however, we note a bold array of rich, vivid toning in cobalt blue, salmon pink, antique gold and copper-russet. A respectable, if not overly generous mintage for the era of 24,384,000 circulation strikes conceals the conditionally challenging nature of this Philadelphia Mint issue. Indeed, the 1959 is scarce at the uppermost reaches of Gem Mint State, and it is undeniably rare in Superb Gem Uncirculated preservation. With outstanding eye appeal due to the aforementioned toning, the coin offered here represents a significant find for the astute Washington quarter enthusiast.
