- 1894-O Barber Quarter. MS-66 (PCGS). A handsome, attractively original example toned in a blend of pearl-gray, champagne-gold, salmon-pink and powder blue. The most vivid colors are seen at direct viewing angles, at which full satin luster is also best appreciated. Expertly preserved and smooth with an impressive exactness of strike for a New Orleans Mint quarter of this design type. The Louisiana coinage facility produced 2,852,000 quarters in 1894. The Barber series was in its third year, by which time interest in the new design had waned considerably. Setting a trend that would continue through the end of this series in 1916, especially for the mintmarked issues, commercial use was immediate and extensive for the 1894-O. Indeed, the typical survivor is well worn and Mint State examples are scarce even in the MS-60 to MS-64 range. Premium Gems such as this are rare, making this an important opportunity for the advanced collector of Barber and/or New Orleans Mint coinage. PCGS Population: 11; 5 finer (MS-67+ finest).
