Rare Quarters
One of our most beautiful coin designs, the
rare quarters is very popular with collectors today. Unlike many other Silver coin series, it is still possible to complete a full set in uncirculated condition. A treasure that very few people will have the pleasure of owning.
A key date for the series is the issue dated 1916. With a mintage of only 52,000 coins, it has always been sought by collectors. As with any new design, both collectors and the average Joe saved numerous examples. Original rolls, though expensive, were still available as late as the 1950`s. The rarest rare quarters is a Type 2 issue, the famous 1918/7-S overdate. Created when two differently dated hubs were used to prepare a single obverse die, the error was not discovered by numismatists until a number of years later, long after most of the coins had entered circulation. This 1918/7-S overdate coin is rare in all grades, but especially so in the higher ranges of mint state. For years, one saw many otherwise complete sets that lacked only the 1918/7-S overdate. It is literally one of the most desirable collector coins of the 20th Century.Buy silver coins online is the key to increase our collection.
