Losbeschreibung

1840 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. AU-50 (PCGS). A boldly to sharply struck, appreciably lustrous survivor of this scarce and underrated issue from the first year of Liberty Head quarter eagle production. Pretty honey-rose patina blankets both sides and provides a pleasing appearance. The experts at PCGS CoinFactsestimate a surviving population of about 100 examples in all grades from the mintage of 18,859 coins for the 1840 two-and-a-half. With probably no more than a couple dozen Mint State examples extant, this endearing AU represents excellent value for the astute gold specialist. Provenance: From the Maurice Snow Collection. PCGS Population: 10; 19 finer, just eight of which are Mint State (MS-64 finest). PCGS# 7717. NGC ID: 25GA. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
