1924-D Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-67 (PCGS). Vivid peripheral toning in reddish-gold, powder blue and salmon pink encircles the obverse of this lovely Superb Gem. The reverse retains more brilliance, although there are wisps of reddish-rose iridescence around the periphery. Sharply struck in all but a few isolated areas, both sides are frosty and smooth. Although the 1924-D is fairly available in Mint State, few of the survivors grade finer than MS-65, confirming the conditionally rare status of the Pogue specimen offered here. From Heritages Houston, TX Coin Auction, December 2009, lot 617.
