Lot 1688
1900 Barber Quarter Dollar. NGC graded Proof 65. Toned with lovely rose hues at the center of the obverse, and mottled blue on Liberty's face and surrounding fields. The reverse is more balanced in the toning arena, with medium gold color around the periphery and more natural appearing overall. Examination with a strong glass will note the usual hairlines (seen on virtually all proof coins from the last century) and a couple of minute handling marks, hidden by the toning. Gem Barber quarters are always in demand, and with a mere 912 struck, few indeed survive in such exceptional grades. Bid accordingly.
Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,400.
