1927-S Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-65 (PCGS). OGH Doily. On this lovely high grade example of the key date 1927-S Standing Liberty quarter, both sides are brilliant apart from crescents of golden-russet peripheral iridescence that are more extensive on the obverse. The luster is full and satiny, and the surfaces are as nice as would be expected for the assigned grade. While not quite Full Head, the strike is superior for this challenging issue with most design elements boldly to sharply rendered.<p>With the second lowest mintage of any Standing Liberty quarter - only the 1916 has a lower mintage - the 396,000 pieces that were struck at the San Francisco Mint in 1927 make this issue one of the classic rarities in its series. Little attention appears to have been paid to the 1927-S at the time of issue and as a consequence, the vast majority entered circulation and remained in commerce until worn out or lost. Today it is estimated that about 95% of surviving specimens are no finer than Good-6. 1927-S quarters are especially difficult to locate in Mint State, and the acquisition of a Gem Mint State example such as this is a significant achievement. PCGS# 5764. NGC ID: 243W. From Heritages sale of the Puget Sound Collection, September 2016 Long Beach Signature Auction, lot 5478.
