Lot Description

Brilliant apart from the delicate pale pink and champagne-gold iridescence, this smooth and inviting Gem allows full appreciation of bright mint luster. As a Philadelphia Mint issue with a generous mintage of 9,716,000 pieces, the 1923 might be mistaken for a more readily obtainable early date Standing Liberty quarter when in the finest Mint State grades. This is incorrect, however, unless one is content to acquire a Gem with poor definition to Liberty's head and other elements of the design. In Full Head the 1923 is rare and underrated, especially with the superior surface preservation that characterizes the present example.
