1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-61 (NGC).Offered is a third Mint State example of the legendary 1916 Standing Liberty quarter. Lightly toned in iridescent champagne-pink and pale gold, both sides reveal the most vivid patina under direct lighting. The strike is impressively sharp for a non-Full Head example, and we note only trivial softness to Libertys head, the shield and, on the reverse, the eagles breast. Satiny in texture, this is a desirable example of a key date issue that would do justice to an advanced collection. A pleasing example for the assigned grade that should attract very strong bidding.PCGS# 5704. NGC ID: 242Y.
