Description

1948 Washington Quarter. MS-68 (PCGS). CAC.
This captivating Superb Gem really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. The obverse is exceptionally vivid with a full endowment of intense antique gold, pale olive, salmon-pink and steel-rose iridescence. The reverse is largely silver tinged, yet enhanced by a nearly complete halo of golden-russet and olive-apricot iridescence around the periphery. Serene surfaces are fully frosted in finish and temptingly close to numismatic perfection. It is little wonder that this extraordinary coin ranks among the finest 1948 quarters seen by both PCGS and CAC.
PCGS# 5836. NGC ID: 245L.
PCGS Population: 3; with a single MS-68+ finer. CAC Population: 2; 0.

Estimate: $10000
