- Lot Description
- 1858 Liberty Quarter Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). Rarer than most P-mint Quarter Eagles from the early 1850s, the 1858 has a more limited mintage of 47,377 pieces. This is the first Mint State survivor that this cataloger can recall handling in recent years. Sharply struck with dominant reddish-rose color, a bit of pale-silver haziness is more evident on the obverse. Sharply struck throughout with vibrant luster and no abrasions that we deem worthy of individual attention.
