- 1898-O Barber Quarter. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC.
Delightful satin surfaces exhibit mottled midnight blue and reddish-russet peripheral toning around golden-tinged centers. Sharply struck in virtually all areas, and uncommonly so for a product of the Louisiana coinage facility, this smooth and inviting piece is sure to sell for a strong premium. Like so many New Orleans Mint issues in the three Barber silver series, the 1898-O was produced in modest numbers (1,868,000 pieces) and suffered a high rate of attrition through circulation. Most Mint State survivors represent coins set aside in limited numbers by contemporary numismatists. This vivid near-Gem is finer than most and is sure to catch the eye of astute bidders.
Provenance: From the John Whitney Walter Collection.
PCGS Population: 15; 18 finer (MS-68+ finest).
PCGS# 5620. NGC ID: 23YE.
