Lot Description

1834 Capped Bust Quarter. B-1. Rarity-1. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC. Warm pearl-gray patina and mottled russet peripheral highlights are largely confined to the obverse, the reverse brilliant apart from a bit of faint silver and olive tinting. Attractively original in preservation, and obviously well cared for over the years, lustrous satin surfaces also offer crisp striking detail throughout the design. A thoroughly appealing and conditionally scarce Choice Uncirculated example of this underrated early quarter type. Provenance: From the Kohler Wisconsin Collection. CAC Population: 13; 8. PCGS# 5353. NGC ID: 23RZ. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
