1893 Isabella Quarter MS-64 PCGS
In 1893, the Philadelphia Mint struck a distinctive commemorative silver coin known as the Isabella Quarter. This piece represents a unique moment in United States numismatics, carrying a face value of 25 cents and composed of 90 percent silver, containing approximately 0.1808 troy ounces of precious metal. Unlike standard circulating coinage of the era, this issue was created with a highly specific commemorative purpose. This particular specimen is graded Mint State 64 (MS-64), indicating a well-preserved coin that retains much of its original luster and detail from the day it was minted. The Philadelphia Mint produced only 24,214 of these quarters, making them a scarce and fascinating subject for study. The obverse and reverse designs feature inscriptions including "STATES OF AMERICA" and the year "1893," marking its place in late nineteenth-century American history.
