1883 Hawaiian Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded MS-67 CAC Approved. In a new secure plus holder. Pop 12; none finer at PCGS. Wonderful golden obverse toning. tied for finest graded. With four official denominations of Hawaiian silver coinage, the quarter dollar is the most affordable in top condition. All were made at the San Francisco Mint this year from dies prepared at the Philadelphia Mint by engraver Charles E. Barber (whose Barber coinage is familiar to collectors.) Production of $1 million in silver comprised greater quantities than was necessary for the island kingdom whose population at the time was under 100,000. A savvy west coast banker and sugar producer named Claus Spreckels (Spreckels sugar) held unofficial power in the Kalakaua government as a political insider. His influence on the King eventually prompted a contract with the United States Mint to produce the 1883 Hawaiian coinage. The incredible example offered here is among the elite, superb few Mint State 67 survivors we have been privileged to offer. Both sides display unrestrained frosty luster. Both sides are overlaid with delicate golden color. The strike is exactly as you'd expect: well executed and only the most inconsequential disturbances can be detected under close scrutiny (PCGS # 10987) . Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,500.
