Description du lot

1882 Liberty Quarter Eagle. MS-64 (NGC). CAC. With a limited mintage of just 4,000 pieces, it stands to reason that most high-grade 1882 Quarter Eagles would display at least a semi-prooflike finish from the dies. This is just such a coin, the rose-gold surfaces readily revealing flashy mint brilliance in the fields. With a full strike and freedom from significant abrasions, this piece certainly numbers among the finest and most attractive survivors of an elusive Liberty gold issue.
