|
1905 PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Exhilarating dandelion-gold luster zooms through the fields and establishes the basis for some very strong eye-appeal. Each side displays nearly flawless strike quality, with the grade probably... |

|
1905 PCGS MS-64+.
|
|
A couple of digits in the date show minor repunching. Slightly glossy texture shines filters over the satin-textured luster. |

|
1905 NGC MS-62.
|
|
Occasional shifty little hairlines can do nothing to suppress some attractive luster emanating from the fields. All the stars, along with the eagle's feathers, are defined with pinpoint accuracy,... |

| 889 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $538.00 |
|
1905 NGC MS-62.
|
|
Very well struck, which is usually the case for this common date. A couple more hairlines than average snake across Liberty's portrait and probably limit the grade. |

|
1905 PCGS MS-63+, and a 1927 Indian quarter-eagle PCGS MS-63+.
|
|
1903 looks uncommonly strong even for MS-63 plus, with valid claims to MS-64 due to mark-free surfaces and superb, original medium-gold patina. Two-toned patina layers part of the upper-relief areas... |

| 399 | The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011 | $1,150.00 |
|
1905 PCGS MS-65.
|
|
Exceedingly sharp, full details are brought up above Liberty's ear, at the eagle's talons and through the interior of every single star. The dies really whacked the heck out of this planchet! Luster... |

Two 1905 PCGS MS-61 (green label).
|
|
1905 quarter-eagles identically graded MS-61 in PCGS green-label holders are seldom more different from one another. The first coin displays a plethora of original copper-spots scattered across... |

| 793 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,100.00 |
|
1905 NGC MS-63.
|
|
Seemingly undergraded by today's standards to the tune of a full point, but this may come as no surprise, since the NGC holder is of rare vintage -- embossed reverse with the blank insert label. A... |
|
| 970 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $600.00 |
|
1905 NGC MS-63.
|
|
Technically a little nicer than the assigned MS-63, since the surfaces are remarkably clean and enhanced with beautiful orange peel effect. This same texture may be responsible for slightly deficient... |

| 971 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $775.00 |
|
1905 PCGS MS-64.
|
|
The obverse is above average for MS-64 in most respects, and both sides exhibit blazing luster and meticulous detail. On the reverse, "D" in the denomination is stained, and there is a carbon spot at... |

1905 NGC PF-64.

1905 NGC MS-62.

Modestly abraded, with the highest concentration of minor handling marks occurring toward the front of Liberty's portrait. The luster is outstanding. |
|
| 1085 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $3,800.00 |
|
1905 NGC PF-63.
|
|
A glittering jewel that seems highly reflective at arm's length. Upon closer examination, some contrast is noted, since the devices and all numerals and lettering feature light mint frost, but the... |
|
| 913 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $1,500.00 |
|
1905 NGC MS-64.
|
|
As expected of a very choice mint state grade, the eye appeal is outstanding. Persistent examination with a loupe discovers faintly abraded fields, but the "pop" of the mint luster and the absence of... |

1905 PCGS MS-65.

|
1905 Coronet quarter-eagle. Unc. Details.
|
|
A cursory glance gives the impression that this gold piece is near a "gem" grade, but closer examination reveals a few nearly imperceptible parallel hairlines across the obverse. Superb for type... |
|
| 845 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $390.00 |
|
1905 Coronet quarter-eagle Unc.
|
|
An array of irregular hairlines, primarily on the obverse, bar this coin from a straight grade, but it should nonetheless serve well as an affordable type example. Few blemishes are noted, and were... |

1905 Coronet quarter-eagle, NGC MS-63

1905 Coronet quarter-eagle, NGC MS-64

1905 Coronet quarter-eagle, PCGS MS-64

Right on the cusp of being considered very sharply struck; therefore, few collectors should be able to find fault with this nicely detailed piece. Hints of grapefruit color visit the reverse,... |

1905 ANACS MS-61.
|
|
Dynamically lustrous and fairly well struck. A copper spot appears directly in front of Liberty's chin, and another is at the base of "ER" in "LIBERTY." The reverse displays several more, and... |

|
1905 NGC MS-64.
|
|
Fiery orange color and a ton of luster really gives this coin a special look. It is struck better than most and has no distracting marks or spots. It is housed in an older NGC holder and may have a... |

|
1905 PCGS MS-62.

A quality example of this waning, long-lived design. The velvety surfaces exude a warm gold aspect with a stunning orange blush on the reverse. Some scant ticks and faint hairlines are noted on this... |
|
| 374 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006 | $800.00 |

1905 NGC MS-63.

|
1905 NGC MS-65.
|
|
This is a highly lustrous and problem-free Quarter Eagle that is pleasing to the eye. It is housed in an old NGC holder, so was slabbed when grading standards were a little more strict. There are a... |

1905 NGC MS-63.
