Owner Comments:

An underrated issue in the Classic Quarter Eagle series, the 1839 is actually the rarest P-mint issue of the type. A mere 27,021 pieces were produced, and survivors are not seen with any degree of regularity even in worn condition. Lightly circulated, the coin that we are offering here exhibits richly original color that blends olive-gold and orange-gold shades. Bold-to-sharp in strike, with an overall lack of outwardly distracting abrasions. Quite nice for the assigned grade.
