Description du lot

1867-S Liberty Quarter Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). Similar in overall and absolute rarity to the 1866-S, the 1867-S Quarter Eagle (28,000 coins struck) is a heavily circulated issue that is typically offered no finer than EF. Conditionally scarce at the AU grade level, the present example exhibits rich reddish-rose color to surfaces that retain some of the original luster here and there around the devices. Isolated softness of strike to the central devices is a very common attribute for the issue, and wispy abrasions are largely commensurate with the grade.
