Owner's Description

Not only is this coin a high grade representative of a Seated Quarter issue with a total mintage of just 59,300 business strikes and 500 proofs, but it is also a conditionally scarce proof from the chaotic final year of the Civil War. It is the end of the No Motto series. Originality is a hallmark of both sides, there being crescents of rich cobalt-blue and tan patina at the upper and lower obverse borders, as well as around the reverse rim from 10 o'clock to 4 o'clock. The balance of the surfaces are bright and untoned with bold field-to-device contrast fully appreciable at all angles.
