1914 Barber Quarter. MS-67+ (PCGS). CAC. The splendid frosty surfaces are very close to perfection. The obverse displays silver white brilliance and pale champagne-apricot and powder blue iridescence while light reddish-apricot iridescence is more pronounced on the reverse. Virtually all design elements are fully rendered, and the eye appeal is outstanding. The 1914 has a high mintage (6,244,230 coins) and a good number were saved. Uncirculated coins in the MS-60 to MS-65 grade range always in demand for type purposes. Examples that are as well preserved as the Pogue specimen, however, are exceedingly rare and remain the province of the most advanced collectors. From Heritages Dallas, TX Signature Auction of November 2005, lot 1333.
