Losbeschreibung

1863-S Liberty Quarter Eagle. EF-40 (PCGS). The only business strike Quarter Eagle bearing the 1863 date, the '63-S circulated heavily on the West Coast beginning in the year of issue. Survivors of this limited 10,800-piece delivery are obviously rare in all grades, and they are seldom encountered in Mint State. Overall lightly worn, yet retaining considerable luster, this coin seems conservatively graded at the lower reaches of EF. More-or-less boldly defined, with a few isolated swirls of copper-rose tinting to otherwise dominant orange-gold color.
