I'm reminded why I didn't complete my Barber quarter set. Advertised in the Numismatic News magazine.

Wow - that is a lot of $$. I'm not familiar with the details of this series but there must be only a few of these available.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

Mintage of 72,664 - second lowest, after 1913-S (40,000).
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

It's not in a TPG.
I'd be careful spending that
Kind of money.

You have to wonder why a coin like that is not in a graded holder.

I noticed that in the 2012 Red Book, this is listed as $22,000 in VF. So with inflation, it has dropped in value.

This ad is listed by a highly reputable shop in Greenville, SC. I am fortunate enough to have family close by, and have shopped there while visiting Greenville.
As far as info about this particular key, this is a "fair price" for a coin in the listed grade. While it is only the second lowest mintage of any quarter in the 20th century, with only 72,000 minted, The 1901-S still stands as the 'King of Barbers' above the lowest mintage date: 1913-S (40,000 minted).
Unfortunately, the price puts coins like this out of my collecting reach. This is a beautiful example, and if I had the funds would add it to my collection.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
