1929-S 25C MS67 Full Head PCGS
<B>1929-S 25C MS67 Full Head PCGS.</B></I> A gorgeous and brilliant piece, frosty with a small patch of striking brilliance to the left of OF on the reverse. The head is very sharp, as is the date and the central letters in UNITED STATES. The shield is crisp save for the usual two rivets near the waist. Essentially immaculate except for a solitary faint graze on the front wing.<BR> Noted Standing Liberty quarter specialist Jay Cline points out that San Francisco issues for the series have, on average, worse strikes than their Philadelphia counterparts. In his fourth edition of <I>Standing Liberty Quarters</B></I> (2007), he estimates that approximately 5% of 1929-S pieces come with enough detail for a Full Head, and between the grade distribution and strike, a boldly impressed Full Head Superb Gem such as the present coin is a formidable opportunity. Population: 8 in 67 Full Head, 0 finer (5/07).<BR><I>From The Madison Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Hermon A.
