An aesthetically stunning coin with an impressive pedigree! It was purchased by J.M. Clapp directly from the New Orleans Mint at the time of issue, and magnificently preserved since. From the Pogue Collection to Helen's Quarters Collection this piece is worthy and ready for inclusion in another fine numismatic cabinet! PCGS has graded only two finer. Both sides are beautifully toned with vivid blues and deep purples at the peripheries fading into rose and apricot-gold centers. Sharply defined with frosty luster shimmering through the patina. - Barber Quarter
