Description
1939-P Washington Quarter, PCGS MS68. This exceptional 1939-P Washington Quarter represents a premium example of one of the most collectible issues from the early Washington Quarter series. Graded PCGS MS68, this coin displays the remarkable eye appeal and luster characteristic of the finest examples from this vintage. The obverse and reverse both exhibit exceptional strike quality and original mint brilliance, with the golden iridescent toning that collectors particularly admire in well-preserved specimens from this era. The 1939 Philadelphia issue is recognized as one of the most available Washington quarters of the 1930s in high grades, yet truly exceptional examples like this MS68 remain highly desirable. With only 3 coins graded higher at PCGS and just 32 total examples certified, this piece occupies the upper echelon of the population report. The reeded edge remains sharp and well-defined, while the surfaces show the careful preservation expected of a gem-quality specimen. Struck in 90% silver composition at the Philadelphia Mint with a mintage of 33,540,000, this quarter represents the classic American coinage of the pre-war era. The John Flanagan design is rendered with exceptional sharpness, demonstrating the quality of the strike. PCGS Certificate #58952678.
