1908-D Barber Quarter (25c)

The 1908-D Barber Quarter represents a fascinating piece of Denver Mint history. While not particularly rare with a mintage of 5.7 million pieces, finding one in true gem condition remains a significant challenge, as most saw heavy circulation in the booming western economy of the early 20th century.

This MS66+ CAC example is a stunner. The surfaces are virtually pristine, with blazing cartwheel luster that rotates fully around both sides. The strike is razor-sharp, particularly evident in the star points and eagle's feathers. A light silver-white patina adds to the outstanding eye appeal, making this an exceptional representative of the grade.
