Owner's Comments

Time to upgrade a few of my rattlers.....A thin arc of gorgeous colorful toning encompasses nearly the entire obverse periphery and over a third of the reverse of this beautiful satiny Superb Gem. Virtually mark-free, the pristine surfaces are complemented by a blue-purple sheen that only enhances the magnificent eye appeal. CAC Sticker.

This issue is average rarity in Gem MS65 condition for silver (pre-1965) Washington quarters. However, in superb MS66 and MS67 condition, the 1951-S is one of the easier Washingtons to locate. I have seen a number of gorgeously toned MS67s over the years.
