1896-S NGC GD-4.
|
Brock Megran Collection. Mintage: 188,039. The ears of "Y" can still be discerned on the headband, though nothing else remains of LIBERTY. Each side displays a flat yet bold outline of the central... |

595 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $1,050.00 |
1896-S ANACS VG-8.
|
Quality should prove worthy of VG-8 at any time, in any holder, as the headband essentially shows "LIB..TY" -- more than ample for a VG grade. Further examination reveals very strong rims, most of... |
|
651 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $600.00 |
1896-S Good.
|
Strong, full rims on both sides (not just the obverse) indicate a G-6 grade, and closer inspection finds the stand of "L" and most of "TY" stubbornly showing on the headband. The entire surface... |
|
652 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $1,150.00 |
1896-S PCGS VG-8.
|
Obviously original, though the reverse is a full two shades darker than average for well-circulated silver. A pyramid of deep ebony toning also erupts from the obverse, ceding to more typical... |
|
539 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $590.00 |
1896-S PCGS GD-4.
|
The reverse just manages to hold on to a fully connected rim, which is not usually the case for G-4, and even the "Y" in the headband shows up under magnification. Needless to say, this is a strictly... |
|
523 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012 | $925.00 |
1896-S PCGS GD-6 CAC.
|
Exceptionally original with no problems whatsoever, the accurate G-6 grade derived entirely from honest wear. "TY" is just visible on the headband, and the rim on either side of the coin shows no... |
|
488 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $425.00 |
1896-S PCGS AG-3.
|
Blatantly original in every sense, dove-grey surfaces are dappled with leaden accents and a few ancient carbon patches on the left side of the reverse. The obverse presents as a full good,... |
|
489 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $650.00 |
1896-S PCGS GD-4.
|
All of the three "big keys" for the Barber quarter series are known to be most available only in the lowest circulated grades, and the 1896-S fits the mold perfectly. Considerable wear has reduced... |
|
385 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010 | $1,200.00 |
1896-S PCGS VG-8.
|
Ultra-original dove-grey patina provides the finest possible visual presence for a coin in this grade (VG-8), and "L....TY" are just visible on the headband. About half the motto on the reverse is... |
|
637 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $650.00 |
1896-S PCGS GD-6.
|
98% complete rims fall just shy of perfection at the left side of the reverse where the field nearly merges, but the presence of a bold "Y" on the headband suggests the "choice good" grade. This coin... |
|
638 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $750.00 |
1896-S PCGS GD-6.
|
Considerable patina layers each side with heavy lead-grey tone and some old grunge. There can be no question whatsoever as to this key date's originality! "TY" partially show on the headband,... |
|
552 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $575.00 |
1896-S Barber quarter, PCGS G-04
|
The final letter of LIBERTY displays on the headband, and therefore, those who like to see highly precise grade assignments would call this G-05, suggesting it as a premium piece (which it is). The... |
|
1058 | The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006 | $825.00 |
1896-S VG-10.
|
An undamaged specimen from the third lowest mintage output from this series. The surfaces have an original antique silver aspect, plus the rims are complete. |
|
533 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006 | $525.00 |
1896-S About Good.
|
A rare coin, regardless of condition. This example has a full Good+ obverse, but the rims are not full on the reverse. A solid date and mint mark have been preserved. |
|
534 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006 | $775.00 |
1896-S GD-6+.
|
Most wouldn't argue with this coin being graded VG-8, but Scotsman Auction Co. tries to error on the conservative side with raw coins. The remaining detail certainly appears VG. The contact marks... |
