Description

1893 Isabella Quarter. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC. CMQ.

A particularly well preserved example that also sports exceptionally vivid toning. The obverse shows areas of brilliance that interrupt splashes of copper-rose and cobalt-blue iridescence. A similar pattern of toning is noted for the reverse. Vibrantly lustrous with radiant mint frost, this exquisite Superb Gem will please even the most discerning collector. This design type by Charles E. Barber, the first - and until the 1776-1976 Washington quarter, the only - commemorative quarter dollar was made at the behest of the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition, of which Susan B. Anthony was a member. The coin was authorized March 3, 1893, and production began almost immediately afterward. As current certified population data shows, the population of survivors thins dramatically at and above the MS-67 grade level. Virtually pristine, and an appealing coin in all regards.

PCGS# 9220. NGC ID: BYJ9.

PCGS Population: 12; 7 finer (MS-68+ finest). CAC Stickered Population: 33; 3. The former total includes coins certified both MS-67 and MS-67+.

Estimate: $9000
