- Splendid Superb Gem 1900 Barber Quarter
1900 Barber Quarter. Type I/II. MS-67 (PCGS). CAC.
Luxurious frosty surfaces exhibit richly original toning, with the reverse having particularly vivid antique gold, powder blue and pinkish-apricot while the obverse has attractive blue-gray, silver-olive and pinkish-gold patina. Fully struck, as is typical of the issue, yet far more carefully preserved than most survivors. This piece is solidly in the Condition Census for this otherwise available issue and will be perfect for a high quality type or date set.
Although generally overlooked by the wider collecting community, the Barber quarter series includes several different hub types. Those of the first year 1892 have a limited following thanks in no small part to their listing in the fifth edition of Bill Fivaz and J.T. Stanton's popular Cherrypickers' Guide, while those of 1900 are all but unknown. Clearly this is a fertile area for an advanced Barber quarter enthusiast. The present example represents the outgoing Type I/II hub combination, the obverse with no center cartilage in Liberty's ear and the reverse with the tip of the eagle's right wing flush with the top of the letter E in UNITED.
Estimate: $6,000 - $8,000.
PCGS Population: 5; with a single MS-67+ finer.
CAC Population: 4; 0.
PCGS# 5625. NGC ID: 23YK.
