I doubt that many exist. PCGS/NGC have graded less than 60 in all grades. 25c pieces were hard working coins in those days and many were either worn out or melted overseas.
Now can someone explain why they sell for so little when compared to the 32-s & 33-d? I would love to upgade the one I have but I never see them for sale despite their affordability.
I am gonna go look at mine now.

Legend has had a gem Unc for sale for quite a few months with no takers.
The coin always comes weakly struck, so if you see one that isn't, throw the price book out the window..........
Most of the gem uncs surviving are of the flat strike variety and are therefore somewhat of a tougher sell. Be leery of any fully struck, proof-like pieces business strikes in the AU-MS65 range. Very likely that the coin is a more common proof.
