Owner Comments:
The 1843-dated (MS 61) Liberty Quarter Eagle is nothing short of rare in Mint State. Just over two dozen of this 100,546-piece mintage are known in BU at both NGC and PCGS combined, and thus this MS-61 example is assured of eager bidding at auction. Both sides present alternating brilliant and satiny finishes. There are scattered abrasions noted here and there, none of which are cause for alarm at this grade level and striking detail is solid. Free from copper spotting, this is a pleasing, early Liberty Two-and-a-Half.
