1860-C $2.50 MS (PCGS#7792)

The Regency Auction 46

Description du lot: Tied for FINEST graded by NGC, this is a very important, low mintage Charlotte mint quarter eagle. Only 7,469 were struck for the final output for this denomination at this southern branch mint. A very scarce date overall with most grading between XF40 and AU5 which undoubtedly includes much duplication. CHOICE AU and finer coins are VERY RARE, especially with any sort of original surfaces as seen here. This coin is BU, there are no signs of friction anywhere. Decent luster swirls around in the fields highlighting very attractive orange-gold surfaces. Typical striking weakness at the eagle's left wing, but otherwise the details are bold. There are a few small, minor contact marks, widely scattered, none of which have any serious impact on the eye appeal, which is quite nice. PCGS 4, NGC 6. The most recent examples to sell were graded by NGC; you have to go back to June 2015 to find this coin in auction where it realized $14,100. The current Collectors Universe value is $17,500 with NONE FINER at PCGS. If you are putting together a set of Liberty Head quarter eagles, you need this BU coin. Cert. Number 25200584 PCGS # 7792.00
