1927-S Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-62 FH (NGC).Dusted with iridescent reddish-gold, this lovely quarter also displays full, soft, satiny mint luster. The strike is impressively full for this key date issue, an attribute that enhances this coins significance. After only the first year 1916, and discounting the 1918/7-S, the 1927-S has the lowest mintage in the Standing Liberty quarter series. Only 396,000 coins were produced, the vast majority of which emerged from the dies with poor striking detail to Libertys head and other features. Given the mintage and the below average striking quality, it should come as no surprise that the 1927-S is the rarest San Francisco Mint Standing Liberty quarter with Full Head definition. This significant rarity belongs in an advanced collection of this brief, yet challenging 20th century series.From the High Rise Collection.
