- 1897-S Barber Quarter. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC. A stunning prooflike finish is readily evident on both sides of this gorgeous 1897-S quarter. Fully struck, satiny devices contrast modestly with highly reflective fields. Iridescent silver-olive, powder blue and golden-apricot toning adds appeal. Overshadowed by the fabled 1896-S, the 1897-S is also a low mintage San Francisco Mint issue and key date. This particularly well preserved and attractive survivor from a mintage of just 542,229 pieces is sure to sell for a premium bid. MS-63 is an ideal grade as it is high enough that carefully-selected coins such as this are beautiful, and yet the cost is far less than for an MS-65 or higher coin. Provenance: From the A.J. Vanderbilt Collection. Acquired from Ken Fagone, August 1968. PCGS Population: 9; 35 finer (MS-67 finest). PCGS# 5618. NGC ID: 23YC. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
