1896-O 25C MS67 NGC
<B>1896-O 25C MS67 NGC.</B></I> This Superb Gem is a memorable coin that represents one of the classic key-dates in the Barber quarter series. While most collectors, novice and advanced, recognize the 1896-S as the important rarity in the series, its New Orleans Mint cousin is every bit as elusive in top condition, especially with a full strike.<BR> Nearly every design feature is boldly rendered, including the star details and all of the hair strands on the obverse and the eagle details on the reverse. Only the arrow feathers near the eagle's claw show slight weakness. Each side of this coin has impeccable surfaces with only minuscule impediments on Liberty's cheek. The central obverse and reverse have creamy luster with peripheral gold, magenta, and blue on the obverse and a ring of light gold on the reverse. Census: 1 in 67, 1 finer (6/07).<BR><I>From The Belle Glade Collection, Part Two.</B></I><BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Charles E.
