1989 25 cents BU (MS-62) - CHOICE

1989 Canada: 25 Cents Caribou

BU (Brilliant Out of Circulation) Quality — Grade: MS-62 CHOICE

Description of the room

This 1989 25-cent coin is a Brilliant Uncirculated example distinguished by its crisp strike. Graded MS-62 Choice , it exhibits the full "cartwheel" luster typical of coins that have never circulated. While some bag marks are present, as is standard for this grade, the quality of the strike and the clarity of the main designs warrant the "Choice" designation, making it particularly attractive for a collector's album.

The Obverse (Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II)

The effigy of Arnold Machin (second effigy) displays complete detail. The luster is vibrant and flows beautifully around the royal portrait, with fields that retain their original metallic sheen.

The Reverse

Emanuel Hahn's famous Caribou is accurately depicted. The antlers, eye, and neck texture are well-defined. The date "1989" is clear, and the reverse surface shows excellent preservation since leaving the Mint.
