- Colorful Superb Gem 1904-O Quarter
1904-O Barber Quarter. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC.
This is a simply outstanding 1904-O quarter that features the superior quality and exceptionally strong eye appeal that we have come to expect of the Pogue Collection. The surfaces are beautifully toned with a target-like distribution of reddish-gold, golden-olive, powder blue and silver-rose. The strike is razor sharp to full throughout, particularly impressive given that David Lawrence (1994) states that the 1904-O is "usually poorly struck and often with some depression on the face." No less impressive are the luster quality and surface preservation, the former full and frosty, the latter very close to pristine. This lovely Superb Gem worthy of the strongest bids.
The 1904-O was produced to the extent of 2,456,000 pieces, and the vast majority of survivors are well worn. Even problem free EF and AU examples are few and far between. The best the market can usually muster in a Mint State coin is an MS-64, and anything that grades MS-65 or finer is a noteworthy condition rarity. In Superb Gem MS-67+ the present example is at the top of the Condition Census for the 1904-O and belongs in the finest Barber quarter set.
Estimate: $15,000 - $18,000.
PCGS Population: 2; 0 finer.
