Notes:
"The Denver Mint began
production this year, while San Francisco did not make any quarters. Quarter
production is fairly evenly divided among the three mints.
In the last edition we speculated that 1906-D
"Presentation" pieces might exist. However, so far none have come
to our attention [as of 1999]."1
The finest Uncirculated example graded by
PCGS is a single MS-67.
