Lot 770
1894 Barber Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 66. Brighter in color than many of the Benson coins, this one has blue around the obverse with more gold, and a larger untoned area at the center than others in this run. A few faint contact ticks, but very few, even on Liberty's cheek. Superb quality. PCGS has graded 14 this high, with 11 graded higher.
Estimated Value $1,300 - 1,500.
From the Benson collection and purchased from Ira S. Reed on August 17, 1944 as part of a set of Proof quarters from 1858 to 1915 for $235.00.
