I picked up 2 Seated Liberty coins this weekend. Next up is this 1891 quarter. She's in a problem free PCGS holder.

Grade and comments welcome. I will reveal the grade on Tuesday. Thanks for looking!

Some would call the reverse "tarnished;" I call it "to die for."

Pessimistically, MS63 but it wouldn't surprise me in a 64 holder. It's just that a couple of the obverse marks - since it's such a clean face otherwise - jump out at me a bit.

I dont even want to venture a guess as to save myself from looking completely ignorant but I will say I suppose I wont be surprised at just MS61...I know, I know "61?" but how did PCGS handle the marks on the obverse relief and the weak strike on all 13 stars? Here's to an education upcoming, cheers...

My first thought was MS-63, so I am sticking with that.

Beautiful Coin!

That's a good point. Most of the stars are not well formed but that didn't hurt it so much. I believe the reverse color also helped the PCGS "market grade".

Thanks to all for the comments. This is one of the nicest Seated coins I have ever purchased and todays down market made it a decent buy. I'll post the grade tomorrow.

Great Looking Coin, The Toning is Amazing!

I want to say MS-62, bumped to 63 for the colour.
