Exquisite Gem Full Head 1928-D Quarter
Underrated Strike Rarity
1928-D Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-66 FH (PCGS). CAC.
Of similar absolute and strike rarity to the 1919-S, the 1928-D is definitely one of the most underrated issues in the Standing Liberty quarter series. Only 1.6 million pieces were produced, and less than 1% of that already limited mintage is believed to have been struck with Full Head definition (per J. H. Cline, Standing Liberty Quarters, 2007 edition). A find for the astute SLQ specialist, this Condition Census Gem offers a remarkable exactness of strike that extends from the rims to the centers. It is beautifully toned in iridescent champagne-pink and all areas are richly frosted in finish. Smooth, attractive, and earmarked for inclusion in an outstanding Standing Liberty Quarter set.
PCGS# 5769. NGC ID: 243Y.
