Introduction des pièces de monnaie
It had been three years since the San Francisco Mint struck quarter dollars, but the 1891-S emission was substantial. In his reference book on this series, Larry Briggs identified six die marriages with none of the dies being duplicated. All the reverses feature the same Medium S mintmark used for 1888-S and earlier dates back to 1875-S. Well worn examples are common, while Mint State and lightly worn pieces are more elusive. A fair number of MS survivors have been certified, including a few gems. Like most S-Mint coins of the 1890s, this issue is sometimes found prooflike.En savoir plus
