***Auction Highlight*** 1896-s Barber Quarter 25c Graded ms63+ By SEGS. This is an exceptionally well preserved example of a leading Barber quarter rarity. Brilliant luster is covered in iridescent pinkish-silver and blue-gray toning that is on both the obverse and the reverse. The finish is satiny and the strike is razor sharp. The 1896-S is part of the triumvirate of key date Barber quarter issues that also includes the 1901-S and 1913-S. Only 188,039 pieces were produced, and even in the lowest circulated grades the 1896-S is scarce (David Lawrence, The Complete Guide to Barber Quarters, 1994 edition, ranks Good/VG examples as Rarity-4). Demand for Mint State survivors far outstrips the supply, with such pieces seldom remaining on the open market for long when they do make an appearance. Indeed, we anticipate that this important condition rarity will attract strong bidding when it crosses the auction block. A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
