1898 25C Quarter Barber PCGS PR68DCAM+ (CAC)

This is the famous “BABY JESUS”

If we had not placed the PCGS CAC PR69 DC, we would call this coin the greatest PR Barber Quarter that exists. Clearly it was sent from heaven. We unhesitatingly give this coin a rare SUPER ULTRA HIGH-END ranking!

No question, this monster beast was carved from a fresh block of ice! This piece is as close to sheer perfection as you will ever see. Incredibly deep mirrors beam from all over. The mirrors are the ultimate in clarity and cleanliness and have a blinding reflection. If you twirl the coin, it is like looking at a freshly formed sheet of ice glistening in the sun with a watery roll. The contrast is awesome. Miss Liberty and every detail are needle-sharp in strike and covered by a thick creamy white frost. The eye appeal is jaw-dropping!

ONLY 735 were minted. PCGS 10, NGC 12, CAC 12. The Young-Dakota 68+ DC CAC brought $28,000.00 but was toned (not even with wild colors). Baby Jesus does indeed light up a dark room! The Collectors Universe value is $40,000.00. The PR 69 DC PCGS CAC is locked away in the RSD Collection. This is probably the second-best Proof Barber Quarter that exists. It was named “Baby Jesus” by its original owner. One look and you will see why (and never forget this coin).

If you buy the very best, Baby Jesus is for you!
