Looks better than MS-62 to me.
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

Nice! Like the nice clean fields, and the pronounced die cracking on the reverse.

Not completely sure, but that 99-O Morgan looks to be a VAM 11A.

I'll add my half eagle to this nice group.
It has a nice re-punched date to boot.

I agree.
What does that one grade RYK ?
No less than six 1899-S Barber quarters. One G-4, one F-12, one PCGS F-12, one PCGS VF-25, one PCGS VF-25 CAC'd, and one PCGS VF-30. For VF, look at the PCGS populations. very underrated.

Wow... @sedulous.... why the sudden grab of 1899 quarters? Or is that an accumulation over time? Pretty sure it is not your birth year....
Cheers, RickO
Here's my one and only 1899 S Quarter, PC AU 53:

Nice colors on that nickel, David!
I'm partial to this one:

I'd bet you are right ricko! Since there's only one person left in the entire world that lived in the 1800s...

Ricko, I studied and saw the mid-grade populations as tough with very low pops in VF... thought I would pick-up a few. Philippine date. Majority are cleaned or environmentally damaged. Looked at Heritage auction archives... didn't find much there either. You have to go way back to find a non-details VF. There might be a couple more out there in VF not 3rd party graded. I see the 1899-S quarter in VF 25 to VF 35 just as rare as the '09-O in XF to AU. Confirmed by population reports. Then you look at the mintages for both the '99-S and '09-O... both similar. The reasons go on and on. These specimens will be off the market for a long while if I have anything to say about it. The VF-30 would probably CAC if sent in. Thanks, Tim

Jeff, I love your '99-S in PC53. Nice yellow tone coloration!
David, Nice cameo Morgan! Clean cheek and a 64 is a great combination in my book.
Ultra, splendid nickel you have there. What did the '99-S grade?

@sedulous...I see your line of reasoning.... best of luck...and those are attractive coins. Cheers, RickO
The 99 S quarter is PCGS 58 CAC
