In 1898 Barber coins had only been around for 6 years and the old Seated Liberty coins were still the more common coins in circulation. When the depression hit the Standing Liberty Quarters had been out for about 10 years and were worn down to almost nothing just like many Barber coins. Hardly any were saved in mint state making those coins rare. This one is in very fine condition which is not as rare mint state coins, but at least most of the details are evident. It goes for about $30.00 in this condition and from this year.
(Note: this is a Philadelphia coin. 1898-O coins go for $140.00 in this condition. 1898-S coins go for $60.00 in this condition.)
