1912-S 25C MS66 Certification #10081843, PCGS #5663

CoinFacts Details

Owner's Comments

While not quite the ultimate '12-S that we hope to find someday, this untoned example offers a reasonably good strike, nice luster, and relatively clean surfaces. In general, throughout this series, the "S" and "P" mint issues seem to be better produced (in terms of strike and luster) than the "O" and "D" mint coins.

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
