Lot Description

1870 Round $1. BG-1203. Rarity-5. AU-55 (PCGS). OGH--Second Generation. 1856-S Seated Liberty Quarter. Briggs 1-B. MS-61 (PCGS). CAC. OGH. Toned in rich orange-gold hues on the obverse and reverse. The surfaces show scarcely any handling marks and merely light wear on the high points. Reasonably sharp on the obverse, the reverse with minor softness at the centers, which obscures the area of the die crack used to determine the die state. Scarce.
