|
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... |

|
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... |
|
| 393 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $650.00 |
|
1896-S NGC GD-6.
|
|
The obverse could not be more perfect for the grade. "TY" is just visible on the headband, and Liberty's ear displays very good sharpness. Central definition on the reverse is not nearly so nice,... |
|
| 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. |
|

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... |
