Incredible Gem 1897-O Barber Quarter Just One Graded Finer by PCGS 1897-O Barber Quarter. MS-67 (PCGS). Exquisite frosty surfaces are virtually pristine with Liberty's cheek particularly smooth. Both sides are beautifully toned in dominant reddish-gold iridescence that yields to blushes of powder blue at the borders. Generally well struck by New Orleans Mint standards, although we do note a touch of softness to a few of the stars on the obverse and the eagle's left talon on the reverse. The 1897-O is one in a long line up of scarce, challenging Barber quarters from the Louisiana coinage facility. The mintage of 1,414,800 pieces saw heavy commercial use and Uncirculated survivors are elusive in today's market. This superb quality MS-67 ranks among the finest certified at PCGS. It would serve as a highlight in any advanced collection and would be especially appealing to Set Registry players. Estimate: $10,000 - $15,000. PCGS Population: 2; with a single MS-67+ finer. PCGS# 5617. NGC ID: 23YB. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
