Losbeschreibung

1834 Classic Head Quarter Eagle. McCloskey-3. Large Head. MS-60 (NGC). Satiny to semi-prooflike surfaces retain much of the original mint finish. A flashy piece with handsome deep gold color and stronger eye appeal than one might expect of a MS-60 coin. McCloskey-3 is the scarcest of the four known die marriages of the first year 1834 Classic Head quarter eagle, a fact that is likely due to early failure of the reverse die. In later states, a die crack through the bases of the letters AMERI would eventually develop into a terminal break involving the entire right border area; on the present coin the crack is barely perceptible, making this coin further desirable as an early die state. A lovely near-Mint type candidate that also represents a significant find for the variety enthusiast. PCGS# 7692. NGC ID: 25FS. Click here for certification details from NGC.
