Housed in a 2nd generation PCGS Holder in excellent well cared for condition. The reverse shows as a true gem ! Appears to be an early full strike as well. Rare in such a high grade. ALL mintstate Victorian quarters in MS 64 are very rare indeed. Only 50 or so quarters of all dates have gotten this high. All population reports now have excess doubling of coins so true numbers can never be established now. A highlight for a quality type set collection. Trends for $4,000.00 CDN .
