1915-D Barber Quarter. MS-67 (PCGS). Quite possibly the most vividly toned 1915-D quarter in existence, this beautiful Superb Gem should to be seen to be fully appreciated. Intense reddish-rose, crimson-orange, olive-gold, powder blue and pale pink iridescence are seen on both sides, with an essentially target-like distribution from the rims to the centers. Silky smooth and virtually pristine, a sharp strike and bountiful luster add to the memorable eye appeal. The penultimate Denver Mint issue in the Barber quarter series, the 1915-D is a popular mintmarked type coin with a generous number of Uncirculated survivors. Few grade finer than MS-65, however, and we know of no others that offer both the expert surface preservation and exceptionally vivid toning of the Pogue specimen offered here.
