Lot Description

1892 Liberty Head Quarter Eagle. MS-62 (PCGS). Intensely lustrous in a frosty to semi-prooflike finish, this lovely example also sports sharp striking detail and vivid rose-gold patina. One of numerous unsung scarcities in the Liberty Head quarter eagle series, the 1892 boasts the lowest circulation strike mintage for the denomination since 1885. The present example, one of just 2,440 coins produced, represents a significant find for the astute gold collector. Provenance: From the Maurice Snow Collection. Acquired from Harry J. Forman, April 1981. PCGS# 7844. NGC ID: 25LG. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
