1899 Barber Quarter. Proof-66 (PCGS).;A dusting of sandy-silver patina is more extensive on the reverse of this premium Gem 1899 quarter, one of the very finest in existence. It is nicely mirrored in finish and the fields offer modest contrast with more satiny devices. This is a very high grade survivor from a Proof mintage of 846 quarters of this date. Numerical grade such as Proof-66 is one thing, and often eye appeal is something else. This coin combines excellence in both categories!;
