<B>1918/7-S 25C AU58 NGC.</B></I> Properly graded AU55 or AU58 issues, especially of the key dates in a series, are popular with many collectors seeking to complete their 20th century collections at a reasonable price--sometimes in combination with Mint State coins for the more common issues. As such, this lightly circulated rose-gray piece should fit the ticket for many a collector. The downstroke of the 7, and indeed all digits, are plainly visible, unlike many Type Two quarters in lower circulated grades. Produced by a dual-hub error during die preparation, just like the 1918/7-D Buffalo nickel, the 1942/1 and 1942/1-D Mercury dimes and the 1943/2-P Jefferson nickel, this wartime collectible is seldom seen in Mint State and far rarer than the 1916 Standing Liberty quarter in comparable grades. Census: 33 in 58, 44 finer (11/07).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Hermon A.
