Description
1937-S Washington Quarter. MS-67+ (NGC).
Virtually pristine surfaces are drenched in billowy mint frost. Brilliant in the centers, the obverse features a partial crescent of sunset-red, antique-gold and emerald-green at the top; similar but less intense colors are seen at the base. The reverse is brilliant. The strike is full throughout and rounds out an impressive list of physical attributes for this captivating Superb Gem. After only the 1932-S and 1932-D, the 1937-S has the lowest mintage in the circulation strike Washington quarter series. Just 1,652,000 pieces were produced, and survivors command a premium at all levels of preservation. This example is tied with just three others as the finest thus far certified at NGC as the finest known! A condition rarity that is worthy of the strongest bids.
PCGS# 5805. NGC ID: 244M.
