- Lot Description
- 1871 Liberty Quarter Eagle. MS-63 (PCGS). Gorgeous reddish-rose patina to both sides, the surfaces highly lustrous with a satin-to-softly frosted texture from the dies. This piece is minimally marked at the assigned grade level, and even a bit of trivial haziness to the surfaces is easily overlooked at most angles. Fully struck throughout, with a very nice "look" that is sure to please the discerning gold collector. From an original mintage of just 5,320 business strikes, and important, as such.
