Superb gem Mint State 67 1892 Quarter. PCGS graded MS-67. As the first year of issue, the 1892 Barber Quarter was saved in large numbers. However, few of these remain in gem-65 condition (PCGS has graded 64 as such). Fewer still remain in MS-67 condition, of which PCGS has graded a mere 7, with a single coin graded higher. This particular coin has delightful greenish gold toning on both sides, toning which seems to commingle with the blaze of luster beneath. Both sides boast this rainbow of color. As to surfaces, they are pristine, virtually free of marks from other coins or any subsequent handling. An impossible coin to duplicate, we can only know that it has been carefully preserved since the time of issue. An investor's dream coin.
