Lot 1322 - united states barber quarter dollars - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841904-O. PCGS graded MS-66. This originally and carefully preserved Gem is enhanced by stunning copper-gold iridescence on the obverse that appears to drift toward the rims. The reverse exhibits multicolored iridescence including green, gray, gold, and a hint of crimson at the rim. The overall strike is quite sharp by New Orleans Mint standards, and only on the stars along the upper-right obverse border do we see mentionable softness of detail. Satiny and smooth, a solidly graded Gem from an issue that is seldom offered any finer than MS-65. Pop 12; 4 finer, 1 in 66+, 2 in 67, 1 in 67+. (PCGS # 5638) .

Lot 1317 - united states barber quarter dollars - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841896-S. PCGS graded MS-65. While the 1896-S is perceived by most to be the least challenging of the "Big Three" Barber quarter issues to acquire, that perception holds true only for circulated pieces. The '96-S, despite a mintage over four times that of the 1913-S, is far more elusive than the later issue in Mint State grades. The 1913-S was known to be a low-mintage issue from the start, and as a result, collectors from the burgeoning numismatic population of the early 20th century saved numerous examples. By contrast, the 1896-S slipped unnoticed into circulation, and it was not until much later that the issue was recognized as a condition rarity. With only 10 Gems graded by PCGS and just one coin finer, an MS-66, the challenge of finding an MS-65 example is clear. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.

Lot 1312 - united states barber quarter dollars - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841893. NGC graded Proof 64. Well struck with a nice overlay of frost on the devices, although this is not noted by NGC as a Cameo. Both sides are sharply, if not fully defined with some spotty toning overall.

Lot 1328 - united states barber quarter dollars - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841915. PCGS graded MS-66. A fully lustrous, virtually untoned Gem example that most will find extremely appealing. The obverse is snow-white and well defined with just a couple of microscopic marks, the reverse is lightly toned and appears perhaps a grade finer. A lovely high-end survivor from the penultimate year of the Barber design. Pop 18; none finer at PCGS (PCGS # 5670) . Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.

Lot 1318 - united states barber quarter dollars - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841898. NGC graded Proof 68 Ultra Cameo. CAC Approved. When studying the proof Barber quarter series, by far, the best produced and attractive issues are the 1896, 1897 and 1898. A survivor of the final issue, this Superb Gem proof, is one of the finest survivors among the 735 coins originally struck and demonstrates ample confirmation of that proposition. Many of the other survivors of this delivery are also quite well preserved, suggesting that much of the mintage found its way into the hands of dealers and collectors at the time rather than the general public. Both sides are silky smooth and temptingly close to literal perfection; there are no distracting blemishes or visible hairlines what-so-ever. A brilliant, glassy appearance is also displayed with a profound contrasting quality. A stellar quality proof type candidate that would serve with distinction in the finest cabinet.
